The British government announced Monday that it would launch an independent inquiry into how a hospital electrician was able to sexually abuse at least 100 corpses in hospital mortuaries.

David Fuller, 67, admitted last week during his trial at Maidstone Crown Court that he murdered two women in 1987.
Prosecutors said he had sexually assaulted the two women after killing them.
Police searches of Fullers home to gather evidence in connection with the deaths uncovered around four million images of sexual abuse that included video recordings of him abusing bodies over 12 years at two hospitals in southeast England.

Officers have tragically found evidence of 100 victims," Health Secretary Sajid Javid told lawmakers while announcing the inquiry into how Fuller was able to go undetected.
Of these victims, Mr Javid said 81 have been formally identified, and specially trained family officers are supporting their families. Every family of a known victim has been contacted, he added.

Fuller pleaded guilty on Thursday to murdering Wendy Knell, 25, and Caroline Pierce, 20, in two separate attacks in the town of Tunbridge Wells in 1987.

He had previously admitted to sexually abusing bodies in two hospital morgues over 12 years from 2008. Identified victims included three children and others older than 85.
He filmed himself carrying out the attacks at mortuaries inside the now-closed Kent and Sussex Hospital and the Tunbridge Wells Hospital, in Pembury, where he worked in electrical maintenance roles since 1989.
Having evaded justice for 33 years, Fuller was arrested for murder in December following new analysis of decades-old DNA evidence.
Hospitals have been asked to urgently review practices on effective CCTV coverage, with all entry and access points controlled by swipe access, risk assessments and appropriate security checks.

That's fucked up.

Disgusting that parents who already lost their kids have to also now go through this. So gross.

I can't even imagine how you would go about identifying all those bodies

that's the type of thing they should probably not have released to the public, why even put that image in the heads of the families releated to the bodies he messed with?

It's a tough dilemma. A crime was committed and it'll come out regardless. They even have a hotline for people to call in if they suspect it happened to their loved one.
