Derby Child Killer Paul Mosley Dies at 58

Paul Mosley, who was convicted of manslaughter for his role in setting a fatal fire that killed six children in Derbyshire in 2012, has died at age 58. Mosley, along with Mick and Mairead Philpott, deliberately started the fire in their Allenton home in a twisted plan orchestrated by Mick Philpott to play the hero by rescuing his children and blaming his former lover. The fire tragically claimed the lives of Duwayne Philpott, 13, his sister Jade, 10, and brothers John, nine, Jack, eight, Jesse, six, and Jayden, five. Despite efforts from neighbors and emergency services, the youngest children died at the scene, and Duwayne later died after life support was withdrawn. The three were found guilty after a seven-week trial at Nottingham Crown Court, with Justice Kate Thirlwell condemning their actions as a "wicked and dangerous plan." Mosley's death was confirmed by family members of both Mosley and the victims, marking the end of a dark chapter in Derby's history.
