School caretaker Ian Huntley was tonight in a secure hospital charged with murdering 10-year-olds Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman.
His girlfriend Maxine Carr, 25, a former teaching assistant in the Cambridgeshire girls’ class, was tonight charged with attempting to pervert the course of justice.
She was remanded in custody until her appearance at Peterborough Magistrates Court tomorrow.
Huntley, 28, was detained under the 1983 Mental Health Act in the early hours of this morning after undergoing a series of medical examinations since his arrest on Saturday.
Huntley underwent a further assessment tonight and will now not attend Peterborough Magistrates Court tomorrow.
His case will be listed ``when he is deemed fit to attend'', a Cambridgeshire Police spokeswoman said.
