Nikki Allan's heartbroken mum calls for potential further victims of killer David Boyd to come forward

Evil child killer David Boyd could have more victims who have never come forward - that's the view of Sharon Henderson whose little girl Nikki Allan was murdered by the convicted sex offender in 1992.

Sharon endured a torturous wait for justice as Nikki's murder remained unsolved for more than 30 years. But on Friday a jury at Newcastle Crown Court found Boyd guilty of the harrowing crime.

The court heard how the 55-year-old was convicted of indecently assaulting a nine-year-old girl in 1999 and of breaching the peace in 1986 after approaching four children aged eight to 10, grabbing one and asking for a kiss.
