Libby Squire’s killer exposed himself to her weeks before her murder, her mother believes. Polish butcher Pawel Relowicz, 28, a married father-of-two, dumped the 21-year-old student’s body in the River Hull after raping her on a playing field in the early hours of February 1 2019.
Before carrying out the murder, Relowicz had been carrying out a campaign of chilling, sexually-motivated crimes in the student area of Hull, peering through windows to watch young women and breaking into their homes to steal intimate items. Libby’s mother, Lisa Squire, told the Guardian that a stranger she now believes to be Relowicz had exposed himself to her daughter on her way home weeks before her death.
She said the incident had left her daughter feeling “absolutely furious”, but she had never thought to tell her to report the incident to the police.
