Mum dies eight years after being attacked by convicted arsonist who exposed himself in her home

A MUM who died eight years after being injured in a blaze was killed “from beyond the grave” by the now-dead arsonist, her mother claims.

Stephen George-Davies firebombed the home of Richard and Rose Perkins in 2008, killing Richard, 38, and leaving their daughter Katie, then 17, with damaged lungs.

George-Davies had been thrown out of the house in Malvern, Worcs, three hours earlier for exposing himself.

He had gone to the house after answering an advert for some puppies for sale.

He was jailed for 22 years after he was convicted of murder and died in prison in 2014 aged 58.

Last night Rose, 48, said: “George-Davies not only cheated his sentence when he died but his crimes have killed my daughter and her son. He should have rotted in prison. He’s tortured me for eight years.

“It slowly killed Katie. He’s killed them all, even the baby. I have lost the closest thing I have. The only reason I’m carrying on is for Poppy.”
