Peter Pickering, 80, stabbed and strangled 14-year-old Shirley Boldy in Wombwell, near Barnsley, in 1972 and was suspected of murdering Wakefield schoolgirl Elsie Frost in 1965.

In March he was convicted of raping a woman weeks before he killed Shirley, and was waiting to be sentenced.

He was at Thornford Park psychiatric hospital in Berkshire when he died.

Speaking after Pickering's death, Elsie Frost's brother Colin said the family felt they had been "cheated" out of getting justice and believed Pickering could be responsible for other murders.

The inquest at Reading Town Hall heard Pickering died at Thornford Park on 25 March where he had been held since 2014 after being moved from Broadmoor.
