Remains found in field are those linked to 'no body' murder case, police say
Karl Hutchings admitted to murdering Julie Buckley and was linked to financial fraud using her bank cards after her remains were found following an extensive investigation, police said.
- On Wednesday, detectives confirmed human remains found in a field in Wimblington, Cambridgeshire, were those of Julie Buckley following a post-mortem examination.
- Officers from the police major crime unit launched a murder inquiry earlier this year after Buckley missed appointments and police found blood at her Christchurch home, prompting a 'no body' murder investigation.
- Changing his plea last week, Karl Hutchings admitted murder at Cambridge Crown Court even though Buckley’s body was not found, and police believe he used her bank cards and sold possessions.
- The post-mortem returned inconclusive findings, and Detective Chief Inspector Richard Stott of Cambridgeshire Police said Julie Buckley’s family are being supported while Karl Hutchings is due to be sentenced.
- Following information from Hutchings' defence team last week, detectives from multiple forces carried out searches that led to the discovery of remains after Buckley went missing months ago, last seen eight months ago.
