A builder has been jailed for life with a minimum term of 49 years for the murders of two women escorts in Sussex in 2021.
Mark Brown, 41, was found guilty last year of murdering Leah Ware and Alexandra Morgan.
He was sentenced by judge Justice Nicholas Hilliard on Friday in his absence – after refusing to attend Hove Crown Court.
Brown killed Ms Ware, 33, and Ms Morgan, 34, at a remote farm near St Leonards in East Sussex in May and November 2021, after meeting them through a sex work website.
He put Ms Morgan head first into a homemade incinerator before dumping her remains.
The body of Ms Ware has never been found, but prosecutors believe Brown used a similar method to dispose of her and also killed her Pomeranian dog, Lady.
