David Fuller: MPs call for public inquiry into mortuary abuse
MPs have called for a public inquiry into how A Man was able to access hospital mortuaries and sexually abuse at least 100 bodies.
During his trial for The Murders of Wendy Knell and Caroline Pierce in 1987, it emerged David Fuller , 67, sexually abused bodies in two Kent hospitals over 12 years.
Tunbridge Wells MP Greg Clark said it was " shocking and devastating".
" We must establish that this can never happen again, " He Said .
The, led by The Royal College of Physicians, which will look into how the abuse happened and what could have been done to avoid it.
Health Secretary Sajid Javid said the NHS had written to all trusts asking for mortuary access and post-mortem activities to be reviewed following the case.
Mr Clark, whose constituency contains The Hospital where Fuller worked, said: " It's not sufficient. This is without precedent.
" There has never been a case in Britain in which The Number and scale of the abuse of Dead Bodies has been revealed in this way and it raises such important questions as to the security of mortuaries not just in the two local hospitals, but for every hospital in the country.
" Frankly one of those hospitals is a very modern, state-of-the-art one with top security systems, so if it can happen there it can happen elsewhere, " Mr Clark said.
" It's now necessary, as well as seeing Fuller go to jail for what I hope will be the rest of his life, that we move on to ask serious questions of how this could have happened and we establish that is can never happen again. "
He added that the case " demands a public inquiry" as it " is beyond the resources and capability of a single local hospital trust. "
