Killer cop Wayne Couzens ‘friends with morgue monster David Fuller’ after meeting in prison
TWO of Britain's biggest monsters have become friends after meeting in prison, it's reported.
Murderer cop Wayne Couzens has become friendly with double-killer David Fuller, who defiled the bodies of more than 100 women and children in hospital morgues.
The pair swapped stories after being imprisoned on the same wing of HMP Frankland in Brasside, Co. Durham, a source told
"We call them The Odd Couple," the insider said.
Both of the twisted beasts carried out their murders in Kent, and the source said the pair enjoy chatting about their old haunts.
"They know some of the same areas from back in the day," he said.

“The idea of them swapping stories turns my stomach.”
Couzens was handed a rare whole-life sentence last year for the kidnap, rape and murder of Sarah Everard.
He used his job to approach the 33-year-old, faking an arrest and even putting her in handcuffs.
But he then snatched her off the street and drove her out of London to a plot of land he owned in Kent.

Sarah was subjected to an unimaginable ordeal before Couzens finally strangled her with his police belt and attempted to burn her body.
Fuller, 67, was jailed last year for killing Wendy Knell and Caroline Pierce in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, in 1987.
Detectives finally managed to convict him of the "bedsit murders" 33 years after the horror thanks to advances in DNA profiling.
But it was also discovered during the investigation that he had spent more than a decade abusing the bodies of women and little girls in morgues while working as a hospital electrician.
Police found around 100 victims in videos he had recorded. However, it's understood there could be many more.
Like Couzens, he will also die behind bars after being given two life sentences.
MONSTROUS KILLERS
Health Secretary Sajid Javid has ordered a public inquiry into the morgue abuse scandal.
Couzens and Fuller are not the first criminals to become friendly in prison.
Karen Matthews, who kidnapped her own daughter in 2008 to get her hands on a £500,000 reward, grew close to killer Bernadette McNeilly at Foston Hall prison in Derbyshire.
McNeilly, who has since been released, spent 21 years in prison after setting fire to a 16-year-old girl.

And paedophile Roy Whiting, 63, who murdered Sarah Payne, is understood to be friends with child rapist Sidney Cooke, 94, at HMP Wakefield in West Yorkshire.
A spokesman for the Prison Service told the newspaper: “We do not comment on individual prisoners.”
