Levi Bellfield guilty of Milly Dowler murder

Former nightclub doorman Levi Bellfield has been found guilty of murdering 13-year-old Milly Dowler.

Milly vanished in Walton-on-Thames, Surrey, as she walked home from school on 21 March 2002. Her remains

were found in Hampshire six months later.

An Old Bailey jury found Bellfield, 43, guilty of abducting and murdering her after she walked past his home.

In 2008 he was convicted of murdering two young women in west London and attempting to murder a third.

Bellfield was also accused of attempting to abduct 11-year-old Rachel Cowles the day before Milly's disappearance.

The jury was sent home and will continue considering its verdict on that charge on Friday.

Milly Dowler was last seen near Bellfield's flat in Collingwood Place, off Station Avenue.-bbc
