Convicted murderer Stephen Marshall, who was sentenced to life imprisonment in February for chopping up a salesman and dumping his body parts around Hertfordshire and Leicestershire, is refusing to tell police about other bodies he has allegedly cut up.
Marshall, 38, who was told he would serve a minimum of 36 years, had pleaded guilty to the murder of Geoffrey Howe but also confessed through his barrister in court to dismembering four bodies during the 1990s.
"Officers from the Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit have made attempts to speak to Marshall in relation to the information given in court by his barrister about the dismemberment of bodies in the 90s," said a statement from Herts police.
"At this stage Mr Marshall is not assisting police with their inquiries. Major crime officers continue their investigations in liaison with the Metropolitan Police.
