The Caravan, the Killer, and the Victim | Leicester News

A chilling inquest reveals the grim tale of Richard Scatchard, a convicted sex offender with a history of drugging and assaulting women, who died from an overdose after evading police for months. Wanted in connection with the murder of 61-year-old Kelly Faiers — whom he met online and whose final messages hinted at coercion — Scatchard vanished after denying involvement in her death. Toxicology reports suggest Faiers may have been drugged, while her confessions to friends painted a picture of a predator with disturbing fantasies. His death in a caravan months later adds a haunting layer to an ongoing investigation into her murder, underscoring a pattern of manipulation and violence that continues to haunt the community.
