Holly's father tells of 'dark dark days'

The father of murdered schoolgirl Holly Wells today told of the “dark, dark days” he and his family have endured during the past five weeks.

Kevin Wells, 38, said he and his wife Nicola, 35, had experienced “just about every set of emotions imaginable”.

Speaking to his local newspaper, the Cambridge Evening News, Mr Wells said: “Over the last five weeks we have experienced just about every set of emotions imaginable”

He added: “This crime had been committed against my daughter and her friend and the initial disbelief of it all turned to a great deal of anger.

“This was coupled with feelings of frustration and helplessness for Holly and really just finding it just so hard to comprehend. They were dark, dark days.”
