Ms Quinn was found unconscious in the living room of her bungalow by paramedics following concerns that she could not be contacted. The much-loved grandmother had suffered severe head injuries and was sadly pronounced dead shortly after.

He pleaded guilty to the murder of Ms Quinn and the theft of her car keys in April last year. Judge Gregory Dickinson QC at the time said it was likely that Bierton would serve the rest of his life in prison.
