They planned a series of murders and rapes, which they did by house theft. They were detained in Cork and received a two-year prison sentence for burglary. After 18 months, however, they were released and escaped British prosecution for the rape charges in England by failing to return to the U.K. and traveling through Ireland. In August 1976, in Wicklow, they repeatedly raped and murdered Elizabeth Plunkett, 23. In September of that year, in Castlebar, they beat, raped and murdered 24-year-old Mary Duffy. On 26 September 1976, both were detained by the Gardaí and later sentenced to life imprisonment for the two murders.[1] In December 2008, Evans underwent heart surgery, suffered a stroke and fell into a coma. Until June 2010 he remained in hospital care with caution, and then was given temporary release when doctors said he was in a vegetative state. In April 2011 he was transferred to Dublin's St. John's Hospital. He died there on 20 May 2012 at the age of 68 or 69 (sources vary).[2] According to the autopsy, the cause of death was sepsis caused by pneumonia.[2] References1. ^1 {{Citeweb|last=Naughton|first= Gareth|title=Serial killer Geoffrey Evans who planned murder a week died of infection|publisher = Belfast Telegraph|date= 5 July 2013|accessdate= 2 July 2014|url = http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/local-national/republic-of-ireland/serial-killer-geoffrey-evans-who-planned-murder-a-week-died-of-infection-29396613.html}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Evans, Geoffrey}}{{Criminal-stub}}2. ^1 2 {{cite news|first=Cormac|last=Murphy|url=http://www.herald.ie/news/serial-killer-who-pledged-to-kill-a-woman-a-week-dies-3115604.html|title=Serial killer who pledged to kill a woman a week dies|work=Evening Herald|publisher=Independent News & Media|date=21 May 2012|accessdate=21 May 2012}} 3. ^{{cite news|last=Brady|first=Tom |url=http://www.wicklownews.net/Post/2012/5/1911/brittas-bay-killer-geoffrey-evans-dies |title=Brittas bay killer Geoffrey Evans dies |work=Wicklow News |date=21 May 2012 |accessdate=21 May 2012 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120524044621/http://www.wicklownews.net/Post/2012/5/1911/brittas-bay-killer-geoffrey-evans-dies |archivedate=24 May 2012 |df= }} 5 : 1940s births|2012 deaths|English serial killers|Irish serial killers|Male serial killers |
