Gary Allen: The killer who nearly got away with murder

From the dock at Sheffield Crown Court, Allen said he had driven to Hull’s red light district on 25 October 1997, where he paid Ms Class £30 for sex. He said she became “angry” after a condom split, the pair rowed, and he last saw her, alive, walking away from his car. Prosecutors asked why he had scrapped his vehicle days later. Jurors were also told how he had washed his clothes in the early hours of the morning soon after the killing.
