The police officer who snared the killer of Renee and Andrew MacRae after almost 46 years has urged him to reveal where he disposed of their bodies.
Detective Chief Inspector Brian Geddes was speaking after William MacDowell, 80, was found guilty of murdering Renee, with whom he had been having an affair, and their lovechild Andrew MacRae in 1976. Maree, 36, and three-year-old Andrew had last been seen on November 12 that year heading south on the A9 near Inverness.
Renee's BMW was later discovered on fire in a layby near Dalmagarry, containing a rug stained with blood matching Renee's blood type. The pair's bodies have never been found and the case had, until today, been the UK's longest running missing person's investigation.
