Security guard Gavin Plumb has reportedly applied for permission to appeal his convictions, after being sentenced to life in prison.
He was found guilty after his plot to to kidnap, rape and murder former This Morning presenter Holly Willoughby, and jailed for life with a minimum of 16 years.
A court official told the Mirror: ‘We have received applications to appeal both [his convictions and sentence].’
‘You intended to harm her husband and her children as part of your plan.
‘You discussed with Marc and David Nelson and no doubt others in hideous and revolting detail the prolonged sexual violence that you intended to inflict on Ms Willoughby once you abducted her and had her under your control.
‘You had previously been convicted of terrifying offences involving the threat of sexual violence against four different young women – I found you to be dangerous.’
Plumb, 37, was snared after a US undercover police officer infiltrated an online group called Abduct Lovers and became so concerned about Plumb’s posts that evidence was passed to the FBI.
