The next day, Edwards was charged with both murders. He has also been charged in relation to two other alleged attacks: a house break and enter and unlawful detention of an 18-year-old woman in Huntingdale on 15 February 1988, and the unlawful detention and two counts of aggravated sexual penetration without consent of a 17-year-old girl in Claremont on 12 February 1995, 

On 22 February 2018, Edwards was also charged with the wilful murder of the third victim, Sara Spears 18.  In all, Edwards was charged with eight offences: The trial began on 25 Nov 18.  On 21 October 2019, Edwards pleaded guilty to charges 1-5.

Sarah Spiers, Ciara Glennon and Jane Rimmer disappeared from Claremont in 1996 and 1997

Edwards, now 52, will not be released from jail.  He has been behind bars for 3½ years. Based on the average annual cost of Maximum Security Incarceration in 2020, should Edwards live another 33 years to 75, his jail incarceration of 36½ years will have cost the Victorian taxpayer $6.3 million circa ($175,000 p.a. X 36 years).
