"The advocate-deputy describes what you did to Angelika Kluk as an atrocity and that word aptly describes what you did to this young woman," Judge Menzies said during Tobin's sentencing hearing. "Any case of rape is serious. Any case of murder is serious. But what you did to Angelika Kluk was inhuman."
For his crimes, Judge Menzies sentenced Tobin to a minimum of 21 years in prison.

Peter Tobin in Custody |
Police now believe Tobin could be a serial killer and may be responsible for up to 11 unsolved murders and disappearances from the late 1960s to the early 1990s.
"We fear he may have struck before," an unidentified police source told News.ninemsn.com.au yesterday. "It is highly unusual for a vicious killer to commit a stranger murder in his sixties."
Investigators are also looking into the possibility that Tobin is "Bible John," an unidentified serial killer who is believed to have murdered three women in Glasgow, Scotland in the late 1960s. Evidence in those murders is currently being reexamined for possible links to Tobin.
Post-mortem tests on the skeletal remains found at Tobin's former home began yesterday, however police say it could take several days to make a positive identification and determine a cause of death.
The investigation continues.
