A court's heard a man accused of murdering a vicar and retired teacher carried out a burglary where a death threat was left containing the phrase 'Christian scum'.

48 year old Stephen Farrow - who admits the manslaughter of Reverend John Suddards in Gloucestershire but denies the murder of Betty Yates in Worcestershire - has pleaded guilty to the burglary.

Prosecutors say the note could link it with the killings.
