Sick Scots murderer moans about 'eating too many sweets' while behind bars

A Scots killer has claimed he won too many sweets during a family fun day at the jail dubbed Monster Mansion.

Fife-born ex-salesman Graham Coutts also bragged that he was able to enjoy a Toblerone for the first time since he was locked up 16 years ago, the Sunday Mirror reports .

Coutts is serving life for strangling teacher Jane Longhurst, 31, in Brighton in 2003.

The extreme porn addict kept her body in his shed for weeks as a sick trophy.

Coutts was joined at the prison bash by his mum who went on a 13-hour round trip from Scotland to the maximum security HMP Wakefield prison.

The murderer was among the prize winners where 15 cons were treated to a buffet, bingo and quizzes alongside relatives.

Wakefield has housed some of the most notorious rapists, murderers and serial killers.

They have included Soham monster Ian Huntley and Dr Death Harold Shipman, who murdered more than 200 patients and hanged himself in his cell there in 2004.

However, Coutts revealed his exploits on his online blog, which he gets pals on the outside to write: “There are always some little events they put on – quizzes, bingo, guess the number of sweets in a container, and a raffle.”

Coutts complained a four-way tie “robbed” his team of first place in a music quiz but they ended up winning sweets including a bar of Toblerone.

He added: “We came second in the general knowledge quiz and got another box of sweets. I ended up sharing them with the other tables – too many sweets and too much food from the buffet... groan.”
