Bevan was not discovered until the following morning when prison staff were tipped off by an inmate.

Further injuries were caused with another weapon while evidence showed that his heart and blood vessels were damaged and that he died from blood loss, a court was told.

Yesterday (18 June), all three men were found guilty of murdering Bevan by jurors at Leeds Crown Court.

The court heard Newell, Fellows and Taylor had no regular association with Bevan, who was classed as a “vulnerable prisoner” and would not usually go onto the fourth landing where his cell was located.

CCTV footage showed the three men together in the days leading up to the killing.

On the day of the murder, they were seen moving between cells on their landing before going together to the fourth floor shortly before the attack.

Bevan’s body was not discovered until a roll call the following morning at which point the prison went into ‘lockdown’.

Searches of the defendants’ cells found items with Bevan’s blood on them.

A piece of metal fashioned into a point was recovered and also contained his blood. Other items described as “makeshift weapons” were found in Taylor’s cell.

The jury found that the three defendants acted together and intended to kill Bevan or cause him serious harm.

Senior investigating officer, Chief Inspector James Entwistle said: “This was a premeditated brutal attack carried out inside a prison by three long-term inmates.

“Fellows, Taylor and Newell’s actions showed a complete disregard for life and for the rules designed to keep people safe in custody.

“By their very nature, prisons are designed to deny offenders of their liberty, but they also need to be environments that are kept safe from unlawful violence.

“Today’s verdicts ensure the continued safety of others by holding these dangerous individuals to account and ensuring they face the full weight of the law.

“It also underlines that serious offences committed in West Yorkshire’s prisons will be thoroughly investigated and robustly prosecuted."
