UK UK - PETER TOBIN - 48 Victims?

Tobin’s victims have been found at one of his workplaces and one of his residences. So perhaps the police should check his other workplaces and residences
 

"Probe launched

into death of serial killer and rapist Peter Tobin

who died after suffering a fall in his prison cell.

It is impossible to know many women he raped and killed over his life, but criminologists think the true number is likely to be far higher than three.

Officers believe Tobin will have killed others and had at least 40 aliases and 150 cars during his life to hide his tracks as he targeted vulnerable women.

If the reported 48 number is accurate, it is thought that would make him the second-worst identified serial killer in the UK in modern times, behind Dr Harold Shipman, who is thought to have killed around 250.

Today, the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service announced a probe into this death because it occurred after he fell in his cell on September 8, 2022 at HMP Edinburgh.

He died on October 8, 2022 at the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary and his ashes were scattered at sea -
despite Miss Hamilton's father pleading for the ashes to be sent to him so he could flush them down the toilet."

Apologies for necroing this thread, but I'm doing some websleuthing and I'm trying to definitively rule out Tobin in the disappearance of Nicola Payne in December 1991.

Does anyone have a definitive (as possible) timeline of Tobin's activities during this period, or know of any FOI requests that might shed some light on what he was up to?

We know he was actively killing during this period and has at least spent time in Coventry as two years later he was found hiding out there amongst a Christian cult.

If anyone can help me I'd really appreciate it.
 
This is the best timeline I've found so far:


Looking at the disappearances of Jessie Earl and Louise Kay, along with the murders he's been prosecuted for, it seems his MO is to murder/disappear a young woman or girl under the age of 20, promptly flee the area, then check himself in to a hospital in the new town for fake medical problems or stay with some sort of religious institution.

Other disappearances he's been linked to through Operation Anagram don't always seem to fit this MO - my guess is he only flees when he's done something bad where he lives.

I still like him for Barbara Finn and Nicola Payne, who both disappeared within 3 months of each other in Coventry 1991, though Barbara is a bit old for him. He was known to live in Margate at the time, quite a drive from Coventry though.
 
Back in the early nineties, Tobin lived in a flat in my home town with his son. He hired two young girls to babysit. he attacked one or both ,I can't remember now, then turned on the Gas taps. Both managed to escape ,He was convicted for this so I know he was in Hampshire around that time,
