He died less than a year into his life sentence
Evil McDowall, 81, murdered his lover Renee MacRae and their young son Andrew in November 1976.
"Renee and Andrew's bodies have not been found and recent attempts to encourage William MacDowell to do the right thing, and share any knowledge he may have which could assist the police, were unsuccessful," he said. Authorities had suspected him a number of times as having involvement in the murders, but it was only last year the then frail MacDowell was brought to trial.
MacDowell and Mrs MacRae - a mother-of-two who was separated from her husband - had been having an affair for more than four years when she vanished, with MacDowell having been questioned numerous times about his connection to the estranged wife of his former boss. Top news stories today On the night Mrs MacRae and her young son were last seen, the court heard of a "blood-curdling scream" just a few hundred yards from the layby where her BMW would be found burnt out.
