A MONSTER who murdered his teen stepdaughter to cover up his evil sexual abuse has died in jail without ever revealing where her body is.
Bernadette Walker was last seen alive on July 18, 2020, when Scott Walker picked her up from her grandparents’ home in Peterborough.

The 17-year-old’s body has never been found, with Walker, 53, jailed for life with a minimum of 32 years in 2021 for murder.
It has now emerged he died at HMP Full Sutton near Pocklington, Yorkshire, on December 22 last year.
Walker, who was not Bernadette’s biological dad, cooked up a “devious, wicked” plot to kill the teen after she told her mum Sarah he had been sexually abusing her “over a number of years”.
The evil stepdad and Sarah Walker then formed an “unholy alliance” to cover up his evil crimes by claiming Bernadette had run away.
They sent messages from her phone and social media accounts after reporting her missing to “lay a false trail”.
Bernadette was finally reported missing after three days and a huge search was mounted.
The parents were eventually arrested about a month and a half later when police launched a “no body” murder probe.
Police have repeatedly urged Walker, who Bernadette called “Dad”, to reveal where the teen is hidden.
A harrowing diary entry written by Bernadatte was released by police after Walker’s conviction for murder and perverting the course of justice.
It read: “Told my mum about my dad and the abuse. She called me a liar and threatened to kill me if I told the police.
“She said that the other kids matter more. I love feeling unwanted. I feel nothing right now cause I always thought mum would deal with [sic] and it would all go away.
“But no, he’s still here telling me I made it up.
“What kind of parent wouldn’t believe their daughter?
“But it’s fine, I’m going to pretend it’s okay till I leave home then I will block them out of my life.
“I’d rather say I’m an orphan than say I have abusive parents who couldn’t give a sh*t about me or what happens to me.
“If I was brave enough I probably would have already left, or just killed myself.”
Bernadette’s mum Sarah Walker was jailed for six years after she was convicted of two counts of perverting the course of justice.
A Prison Service spokesperson said: “Prisoner Scott Walker died on 22 December at HMP Full Sutton and, as with all deaths in custody, the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman will investigate.
“We know this will be difficult news for the family of Bernadette Walker and our thoughts are with them.”
