A 40-year-old British man has been charged with murder over the killing of three prostitutes in northern England, a prosecutor said.
Stephen Griffiths is accused of murdering Suzanne Blamires, Shelley Armitage, and Susan Rushworth.
The remains of Ms Blamires, 36, were found in a river on Tuesday.
Shelley Armitage, 31, has been missing since last month, and Susan Rushworth, 43, disappeared last June.
Peter Mann of the Crown Prosecution Service said: 'I have decided that there is sufficient evidence to charge Stephen Griffiths with their murders and that it is in the public interest to do so.'
