A woman who murdered her parents and then feasted on their finances for several years after hiding them in “makeshift tombs” at their own house will spend the next several decades in prison.

On Friday, Virginia McCullough, 36, was sentenced to spend at least 36 years behind bars before she is eligible for parole, according to a press release issued by the Essex Police Department in east England.

By the time the killer was apprehended, however, her guilt was never in doubt. She readily admitted to the crime — and seemingly relished the latest of several unfortunate turns when finally caught.

“Cheer up, at least you’ve caught the bad guy,” the murderess told arresting officers in September 2023. “I know I don’t seem 100% evil.”
