Gavin Plumb, 37, who planned to kill presenter during ‘home invasion’ at her property, receives life sentence
A former security guard obsessed with Holly Willoughby has been sentenced to life with a minimum term of 16 years for masterminding a plot to kidnap, rape and murder the TV presenter.
He was found guilty last week of three charges: soliciting murder, encouraging or assisting the commission of kidnap, and encouraging or assisting the commission of rape. He was unaware that one of the people with whom he was communicating was an undercover police officer based in Owatonna police department in Minnesota, who alerted UK authorities, leading to Plumb’s arrest.
The jury was played a voice note sent by Plumb in which he explained his “plan of action”, which included picking “outfits of hers that we like”.
