The mother of murdered Milly Dowler, says she hopes Levi Bellfield's life in prison is a "living hell" after he was convicted of killing the Surrey schoolgirl.

Sally Dowler spoke outside the Old Bailey this afternoon, after Bellfield was given a second whole-life sentence for Milly's murder.

Mrs Dowler, who collapsed in court on Thursday as Bellfield was convicted, said the pain of losing Milly would never go away and that the trial had been harrowing for the whole family.
