'''David Fuller''' is a British man responsible for the 1987 murders of Wendy Knell and Caroline Pierce. He had sex with their corpses after killing them and also raped at least 98 other dead bodies while working as an electrician at a morgue. 

==Biography==
On 23 June 1987, Fuller attacked Wendy Knell in her house in Tunbridge Wells and strangled her to death before raping her corpse. Five months later, on 24 November, he attacked Caroline Pierce while she was walking through Grosvenor Park, killed her and raped her afterwards. Her body was dumped in a flooded drain. The killings, known as "the bedsit murders", were unsolved for 33 years.<ref>[https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-58250043 The double murderer who sexually abused the dead for decades], BBC News</ref>

The case was re-opened in 2019. With modern advancements in DNA technology, police were able to link the semen from the crime scenes to a DNA sample taken from Fuller during a burglary arrest. Fuller was arrested in his house in Sussex, where police discovered a hard drive in his wardrobe. The hard drive was found to contain millions of videos and images, mostly either child pornography or Fuller raping corpses.<ref>[https://www.cps.gov.uk/cps/news/updated-sentence-david-fuller-hospital-electrician-convicted-cold-case-double-murder-and Hospital electrician convicted of cold-case double murder and 51 sexual offences], Crown Prosecution Service</ref> Fuller had gained access to the dead bodies through his job as an electrician at Kent and Sussex Hospital, which allowed him to access the morgue using a swipe card. In total, Fuller admitted raping 98 corpses, 78 of which were identified.<ref>[https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-kent-63132050 David Fuller: Double murderer charged with more mortuary abuse], BBC News</ref> Police suspect him of violating thousands more corpses.

Fuller was charged with murder, sexual penetration of a corpse, possessing and making indecent images of children and voyeurism. He pleaded guilty to all charges except the two murders, citing diminished responsibility. He eventually pleaded guilty to the murders and received a whole-life order (the British equivalent of life without parole).<ref>[https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-59601656 Killer who abused mortuary bodies will die in jail], BBC News</ref> He later pleaded guilty to raping an additional 16 bodies.<ref>[https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-63488309 David Fuller: Double murderer pleads guilty to more mortuary sexual abuse], BBC News</ref>
