A paedophile who raped a girl and threw her brother off a 100ft cliff to "silence him" has been jailed for life.
A jury at Oxford Crown Court found him guilty of attempted murder and sexual offences and he was told he would have to serve a minimum of 20 years. Det Sgt Jemma Paterson, from Sussex Police, said she was "shocked" to find the boy had survived the fall on 24 September.
