Essex police reportedly reviewing deaths of fentanyl killer’s father and grandfather

Force has not denied reports it is investigating whether Luke D'Wit may have killed twice before without detection

Police are reportedly investigating whether a man convicted of murdering a married couple last year with fentanyl may have previously killed his father and grandfather.

In March Luke D'Wit was jailed for a minimum of 37 years for poisoning Stephen and Carol Baxter with the synthetic opioid painkiller at their home in West Mersea, Essex, on Easter Sunday in 2023. He amended the couple's will the next day to make himself a director of the company they ran.
