Pawel Relowicz disclosed no details during trial and pathologist was unable to determine cause of death
More than two years after their daughter’s murder, Libby Squire’s parents are still in the dark. They don’t know how she was killed or whether she was alive when she entered the River Hull. What they do now know, however, is that Pawel Relowicz, a 26-year-old butcher, is the man who killed her.
Relowicz, who was convicted of murdering the 21-year-old on Thursday, is still the only person who knows what happened in the early hours of 1 February 2019. A Home Office pathologist, Dr Matthew Lyall, told jurors that Squire’s cause of death could not be determined because of the amount of time her body had been in the water. By the time it was recovered, it had spent seven weeks in the Humber Estuary.
