| She managed to free herself and raised the alarm, Southwark Crown Court was told in July. | |

| Dixie wrote to police saying he wanted to "tell the truth" about what happened to Miss Bowman, before telling detectives he had killed her in a frenzied attack that included biting her after she fled from her boyfriend's car in a row. | |
| Later, while being interviewed by police, he said he had not raped or murdered anybody before. | |

| He was also responsible for another sex attack in Australia, where he had lived for six years. | |
| Dixie has also admitted a serious sexual assault in Spain in 2005, his barrister Andrew Mooney said. |
