Chilling CCTV shows final hours of mother-of-two, 33, dancing alone at 3.30am in nightclub before she was strangled to death by sex-crazed killer who lured her away
CHILLING footage has captured the tragic final hours of a mum-of-two, murdered by a sex-crazed killer at his Birmingham flat.
CCTV shows Charlotte Teeling dancing alone in an empty city centre nightclub, just hours before she met Richard Bailey - who then lured her to his bedroom in Kingstanding.
Richard Bailey
Once inside his room, the 33-year-old mum was strangled to death by the 'opportunist' sex killer.
The 41-year-old has this week been jailed for a minimum of 29 years for murdering Miss Teeling during what he claimed was “rough sex” at a bedsit on Cooksey Lane.
She suffered catastrophic injuries to her neck and mouth and sustained a bone fracture near to the base of her tongue, a post-mortem revealed.
This suggested Bailey has used “significant force” in the killing.
He then scattered pornography around her and left her naked on the bed until her body was discovered in a police raid at the address a week later.

In video evidence released by West Midlands Police, the mum's horrific death unfolds hour-by-hour from the moment she arrives at the club - to her final steps into Bailey's flat.
CCTV evidence - released by West Midlands Police - reveals how the troubled mum had been at Priva alone for more than two hours before she died.
She walks along the empty street and up to a lone bouncer outside the nightclub. She then enters at 3.22am before taking to the dancefloor alone.
The club is completely empty, save for another bouncer, as she dances around in a circle.
She is shown leaving the club more than two hours later at 5.32am as she dons her pink jacket and is escorted to a plaza near the Bullring shopping centre.
The court heard how after leaving Priva, a bouncer had walked her near to the Bullring shopping centre, where he claimed she had propositioned him.
He rejected her advances and left her to make her way back to the nearby train station.
In the CCTV she can be seen holding hands with one of two men in high-vis jackets as they walk her away from the club.
Shortly after leaving the club, Charlotte bumpd into sex-obsessed Bailey at a Select & Save store in the city centre.
CCTV footage from inside the shop shows how they met near the freezer section when he engaged her in conversation.
He is seen swigging a bottle of beer from inside his jacket as he speaks to her.
Bailey appears to pick up a can which Teeling then pays for at the till.
The pair then embrace several times, kissing and hugging inside the shop.
They leave the store at 6.18am before getting into an A2B taxi back to his flat.
CCTV shows Bailing holding Miss Teeling's hand as he lures her into the taxi.
During the journey they stop off to get some cash - where they are caught on camera kissing. Miss Teeling then made a call to a man believed to be a drug dealer, jurors heard.
They bought £40 worth of crack cocaine after earlier spending time at New Street Station, drinking and taking crack cocaine.
At around 7.08am the pair can be seen arriving at Bailey's accommodation.
Tragically, this is the last known footage of Miss Teeling alive.
It is believed she was brutally killed between 9.30am and 11.30am that morning - after Bailey had used her bank card to buy himself beer.
As Charlotte lay dead in Bailey's bedroom with pornography scattered around her, he callously used her bank card to buy chicken at a takeaway.
Charlotte's body was found in Bailey's home on March 2 - four days after she was reported missing.
She was discovered "naked apart from a piece of underwear on her midriff", with pornography scattered around her.
CCTV footage shows him tucking into a meal shortly before 11pm as he pays for it using Charlotte's money.
On Wednesday, September 12, Bailey was sentenced at Birmingham Crown Court to life imprisonment, to serve a minimum of 29 years.
Sentencing, Judge Patrick Thomas QC said: “Sentencing him, Judge Patrick Thomas said: "In the course of that sexual intercourse you killed her.
"She did not consent to being injured let alone killed. You decided to muffle her voice and breathing at all costs. You have not given any explanation why.
You were applying force to her neck for your own satisfaction."
