Silence on streets of Soham as jury retraces girls’ final steps

TOTAL silence fell on the streets of Soham yesterday as a murder trial jury retraced the final steps of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman.

Under grey November skies the jurors walked the final route taken by the two 10-year-olds before entering the house where they are alleged to have been murdered by Ian Huntley.

They also stepped inside the hangar building at Soham Village College where the charred remnants of the girls' clothes were found hidden in a bin.
