'I knew I'd catch Melanie Road's killer'
A man who sexually assaulted and stabbed a girl 32 years ago has been given a life sentence for her murder.
Melanie Road, 17, was attacked as she made her way home from a nightclub in Bath in June 1984.
Christopher Hampton changed his plea to guilty as his murder trial was due to begin at Bristol Crown Court, and must serve a minimum term of 22 years.
DCI Julie MacKay has been working on the case since 2009 and says she had a "gut feeling" she would find the person responsible.
