A porn-obsessed shop worker photographed the murder of a teenage friend after luring her to his parents’ home for a photo shoot.
Jamie Reynolds, 23, used a ligature to throttle detective’s daughter Georgia Williams, 17, and then took sick snaps of her lifeless body.
Horrified cops discovered the shocking cache of photos when they arrested him in connection with the A-Level student’s disappearance.
Reynolds was obsessed with extreme pornography and snuff movies - in which actual murders are captured on camera.
He waited until his parents were on holiday in Italy before inviting unsuspecting Georgia to his family home in Wellington, Shropshire, for the shoot.
In a chilling Facebook message sent to the pretty flame-haired teen just hours before the killing he wrote: “I’m home alone now all week :-D”
The RAF cadet told her family she was going to Reynolds’ house after he offered to take modelling-style portrait photos and would later be sleeping at a pal’s.
But Reynolds, who had met Georgia at an under-18 music night in a local pub, had already decided he was going to kill her.
He was also obsessed with redheads and had previously been warned by cops for stalking another girl.
Reynolds also superimposed photographs of other redheads found on Facebook onto extreme pornographic images.
Cops believe he killed Georgia, who worked part-time in a local petrol station, after she rejected his advances and revealed she had a new boyfriend.
She initially posed for innocent portrait-style snaps - but the shoot last May turned deadly when he produced a noose and throttled her.
He continued to snap away during the murder and then took horrific photos of her body after killing her which he saved on his laptop.
After the murder he put Georgia in the back of his dad’s white van and drove 50 miles to Wrexham where he dumped her body in remote woodland.
Her parents, Det Con Steve Williams, 56, and Lynnette, 51, raised the alarm the following morning when they discovered she did not stay with friends.
Steve, who works for West Mercia Police, phoned Reynolds - who chillingly claimed she left his house without drama following the photo shoot.
Detectives launched a massive manhunt and eventually tracked Reynolds down to a Premier Inn hotel room in Glasgow.
He was initially arrested on suspicion of kidnap but re-arrested on suspicion of murder after cops found the photos of Georgia’s body on his laptop.
Her remains were discovered two days later by a horrified walker close to the Nant-y-Garth pass near Wrexham.
Reynolds admitted the horrific murder when he appeared before a judge at Stafford Crown Court today.
[...]
He is being held in high security Ashworth Hospital - where Moors murderer Ian Brady is a long-term patient.
The judge added that the case was one in which he would have to consider whether a whole life term was the appropriate sentence.
He ruled that “extreme” evidence of the case will never be revealed as it could cause the public “untold distress”.
[...]
Police refused to say if Georgia had been sexually assaulted but confirmed there was a sexual element to the crime.
They discovered sick sexual fantasies Reynolds had written about killing a former female colleague when they arrested him.
Police confirmed he received a “reprimand” from them in 2008 after harassing a teenage girl.
