David Fuller, age 67, who was accused of killing two women in 1987, sexually assaulted female corpses in the two hospital mortuaries he worked.

David Fuller, a 67-years-old man, strangled two women aged 25 and 20 around thirty years ago. The victims are identified as Wendy Knell and Caroline Pierce.
The two murder cases committed five months apart had strikingly similar characteristics that led the police to believe it was carried out by the same person, as per The Sun.
Further, Fuller first killed the victim and then went on performing sexual activities on their dead bodies. This act of sexual perversion has brought out many other gross secrets of the perpetrator from back in the day.
