Chilling pics show Bobbi-Anne McLeod’s killer partying on beach where he dumped teen’s body

CHILLING pictures show Bobbi-Anne McLeod's killer partying on the beach where he dumped the 18-year-old's body.

Cody Ackland, 24, snatched teen Bobbi-Anne McLeod from the street as she waited for a bus near her home in Plymouth.

Her body was discovered three days later eight miles away in a wooded area near Bovisand beach.

Ackland today pleaded guilty to murdering the teen and will be sentenced next month.

He posted pictures and videos of him and his pals partying on the same beach just weeks before Bobbi-Anne was murdered in November.

One shared on his Instagram in May shows a bonfire on the sand as the sun sets over the sea.

A bottle of beer and clothing can be seen in the glow of the flames.

Ackland tagged some of his pals - including his Rakuda bandmates - with the caption: "Capture them moments".

The monster also pinned a clip to his highlights reel of a boozy bash at the same beach.

His mates, who were not involved in the horror, can be seen drinking beer by a bonfire as they relax on chairs and blankets.

Indie music fan Ackland added Oasis hit Cast No Shadow over the top of the video.

Lyrics he also shared include: "Bound with all the weight of all the words he tried to say/As he faced the sun he cast no shadow".

Ackland, who was not known to Bobbi-Anne, today pleaded guilty to murdering the teen then dumping her body on the popular beach.

Officers discovered her dead in woodland by a lane between the Fort Staddon and Fort Bovisand military landmarks.

An inquest in December heard how a medical cause of death has not yet been "ascertained".

TRAGIC END

She was on her way to meet boyfriend Louie Leach when she disappeared.

He waited for the teen to arrive but raised the alarm after she never showed up.

Police later discovered her headphones and a pouch of tobacco on a grass verge near the bus stop.

Ackland is a lead guitarist in Plymouth with indie rock group Rakuda, who regularly toured the city.

He is also the main songwriter and performed with his bandmates on BBC South West radio.

His bandmates previously announced they will be disbanding as a mark of respect to Bobbi-Anne.

They said: "The remaining members of Rakuda; Josh, Ross, Josh and Mike are all extremely shocked and in complete disbelief by the tragic event that has unfolded over the last several days.

"Our thoughts and prayers are with Bobbi-Anne McLeod’s family and friends who must be devastated at their loss.

"As a mark of respect, we have decided that we shall not be going forward as a band and will be disbanding with immediate effect.

"We will not be making any further comments at this time."
