Torture killer Colin Coats convinced detectives they would find tragic Lynda Spence when they started digging a remote area for her remains.
Desperate officers approached Coats – who is serving life for Lynda’s kidnap and murder – to help them locate her body during their failed search of a site in Argyll. They escorted the brute to a field in Dunoon where he claimed he buried his 27-year-old victim 11 years ago.
His co-accused Philip Wade, also jailed for life for his role in Lynda’s death, also visited the site after the evil pair pinpointed a location on a map. Police were so certain of success they told the tragic financial adviser’s parents they were “98 per cent sure” they’d find her.
