A convicted sex offender bled to death after his genitals were cut off and he was left to die at an abandoned industrial estate.
Reginald Alan Roach, 63, was attending court hearings over failing to comply with the notification requirements of the sex offenders’ register.
He was due to enter a plea the day his body was found.
Roach was first placed on the register in August after he admitted to exposing himself at a Travelodge Hotel.
Naked from the waist down, Roach asked hotel staff to place a bet on for him, North Wales Live reports.
However, he escaped any jail time after Judge Gwyn Jones suspended the 16-week sentence.
In 2020, he also admitted destroying a poppy memorial the day after Remembrance Sunday in 2019.
He told police he had been in the navy for 12 years, and was again spared jail after his lawyer’s argued he drug and alcohol difficulties.
