Ian Huntley's Daughter Says 'Flush His Ashes Down the Toilet' After Killer Dies
Samantha Bryan rejects any memorial for her convicted killer father following his fatal prison assault, saying he does not deserve dignity or a grave for his crimes.
- On Saturday morning, Ian Huntley died in hospital after an incident at HMP Frankland's workshop; Durham Constabulary confirmed he was taken to hospital following the incident on February 26.
- Following the workshop attack, doctors placed Huntley on life support which was later withdrawn on March 6 after he was struck with a spiked metal pole and left blind and in a vegetative state.
- Bryan told reporters she rejected any grave or memorial for Huntley, saying he "isn't worth a funeral" and his ashes should be flushed down the toilet as he will "burn in hell".
- A file is being sent to the Crown Prosecution Service, and a spokesperson from the Ministry of Justice said the murders remain "one of the most shocking and devastating cases in our nation's history".
- Huntley's mother, Lynda Richards, travelled 175 miles to his bedside last week and was reportedly the only family member present; if unclaimed, the prison service and local authority typically arrange a low-cost, quiet cremation.
