A father jailed for life for murdering his eight-year-old daughter has written self-pitying letters in which he boasts about his rage and family.
William Billingham, 55, knifed Mylee as she pleaded Please Daddy, no Daddy, stop it at their home to get back at his ex refuses to show remorse in hate-filled letters.
The dad-of-six writes people are poison and sorry if I come across as depressing, its been tough in one astonishing note, Mirror Online says.
In another, the killer whinges: My birthday is next week, never thought for a minute Id spend it in a place like this.
I still wake and ask what the hell Im doing here.
Billingham, formerly of Brownhills, West Midlands, reveals friends passed a phone around at his local pub so he could chat to them after they set up a memorial garden for Mylee.

He even brags of how his TV star brother Mark Billingham has partied with Welsh rock band Stereophonics and rubbed shoulders with Tom Cruise in other sick letters.
My brother is a legend in many ways and Im incredibly proud of him – hes always coming here for me.
I remember him going backstage and back to the hotel to get p*ssed with the Stereophonics. That was really messy apparently, the prisoner wrote.
Billingham – who will be 82 before his release from prison can even be considered by the Parole Board – added: My head is all over the place but trying day by day to recall things. Ive never suffered with amnesia just events I have no recollection of at all.
I get a lot of groundhog days but get out morning and afternoon for social when I listen to my voicemails and make calls to family and friends.
Ring me brother and he puts my bets on – I love horse racing especially going.
Mylees heartbroken mum Tracy Taundry said in a statement read in Birmingham Crown Court: How can I ever explain how the murder of my beautiful daughter – smiley Mylee – has affected me, her sisters and her immediate family?
Mylee was brutally taken from us by a man who was supposed to protect and to care for her.

Since this incident I have struggled to sleep. I have constant nightmares and I relive that terrible night over and over again.
I regularly hear Mylees voice and immediately start to look for her.
None of us will ever get over what has happened.
