Alan Edwards
A “violent and controlling” bully who murdered a missing mother-of-five has been jailed for a minimum of 27 years.
Alan Edwards, 48, pretended he last saw Susan Waring when he claimed she kissed him goodbye and walked out of his flat in Darwen, Lancashire, on January 30 2019.
But the prosecution said he was a “bully” who killed the 45-year-old, disposed of her body and then attempted to cover his tracks.
After Edwards was arrested in March 2019, a forensic examination of his flat in Blackburn Road, Darwen, found blood in various locations and on items throughout the premises.
