Police have now released a 999 call made by the killer when Katie's family turned up at his door looking for her. In the audio Burfield is heard saying: 'There's a guy here threatening me, he's kicking my door in. 'I don't know his name, he's a friend of my girlfriend. 'He's come to collect some items for somebody. Image: Lancs Live/MEN Media) Lancs Live/MEN Media) 'He's standing in the foyer, I'm going to barricade the door.' When asked if his girlfriend knew the man's name Burfield chillingly replied she was not in, when in fact she was already dead in the grave he had dug for her earlier. In April this year Burfield had taken Katie for what would be her final meal at McDonald's before driving her to a forest where he'd already dug her grave. He told the vulnerable mum-of-two he was taking her to a therapy unit so she could get help. When){kind=link}
Murderer Andrew Burfield, 51, killed ex-girlfriend Katie Kenyon with an axe before dialling 999 and making a fake phone call to police as he buried her in a shallow grave
An evil murderer who killed his ex-girlfriend called police when her concerned relatives turned up at his home looking for their relative.
Andrew Burfield, 51, took Katie Kenyon for a meal at McDonald’s on April 22 before driving her to Forest of Bowland, Lancs, where he had already prepared her makeshift grave.
In an effort to cover his tracks, Burfield messaged himself and his victim’s children off her phone before using his own phone to send Ms Kenyon voice notes, begging her to call him.
After the deadly attack he buried her body but later dialled 999 when her concerned relatives went to his house looking for Katie, it has been revealed.
