Speaking at the scene of the search on Wednesday, Detective Superintendent Paul Wither, who is leading the inquiry, said: "Two officers visited him [Mr Fitzpatrick] at Garth Prison last Friday when he basically admitted his guilt, admitted responsibility for the murder and indicated that the body had been buried in a shallow grave in Admiral's Wood."
