Jurors in the trial of the former school caretaker charged with murdering English schoolgirls Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman visited the site today where their bodies were dumped in a ditch.
On the second of a two-day visit to key sites involved in the trial of Mr Ian Huntley, the seven women and five men of the jury were taken to woodland in Suffolk where the girls' bodies were found at the end of a 13-day search in August 2002.
Yesterday, jurors visited various places in the girls' home town of Soham, Cambridgeshire, including the house at Number 5 College Close where Mr Huntley lived and where prosecutors say he murdered the girls on the evening of Sunday August 4th, 2002.
Last week, the jury at the Old Bailey heard that 10-year-olds Holly and Jessica died in Mr Huntley's house, probably from asphyxiation.
Their burned and decomposed bodies were found by chance after two weeks, side by side in a remote drainage ditch near Lakenheath in Suffolk, eastern England, about 15 miles from Soham.
Prosecutor Mr Richard Latham has told the court that Mr Huntley was unlikely to deny that Holly and Jessica went into his house on the evening they vanished and that they died there.
Mr Latham has dismissed any idea that the girls could have died by accident, saying Mr Huntley murdered them and then carefully planned how to hide the bodies and cover his tracks.
Mr Latham said Mr Huntley (29) who knew the Lakenheath area, went to the ditch twice - once to dump the girls and again three days later to burn their bodies in a bid to erase DNA evidence.
