The man suspected of strangling his lover before throwing her body into a river wrote a note to her teenage daughter telling her: 'Stay here, I've gone to look for mum', before killing himself, police believe. John Didier, 41, is believed to have murdered Annette Creegan, 49, on the Norfolk Broads while the couple were on a boating holiday with her 13-year-old daughter. Now it has emerged that the American scribbled a note to the girl while she was asleep before deliberately drowning himself or dying in an accident. It is believed the girl found the note when she woke up and waited on board for several days, hoping that her mother, a 'devoted' hospice nurse, and her boyfriend would return.
