A 55-year-old man has admitted the murder of a pensioner who was stabbed after going to the aid of his neighbour - a convicted paedophile - during a robbery.
Ian McLoughlin, 55, appeared at the Old Bailey and admitted killing Graham Buck in Little Gaddesden, Hertfordshire, in July.
Mr Buck, 66, suffered fatal stab wounds when he responded to cries from the home of 86-year-old Francis Cory-Wright in the village near Berkhamsted.
McLouglin met Mr Cory-Wright while in prison and showed up at his house claiming to need help setting up a charity for elderly ex-offenders.
But McLoughlin, already a convicted killer, suddenly grabbed him and demanded money and valuables.
He tied up Mr Cory-Wright, who was jailed for 30 months for indecently assaulting a 10-year old boy in the 1970s, and stuffed silver family heirlooms into a pillowcase and demanded his bank cards and pin numbers.
Mr Buck, a father-of-three, who lived two doors away from Mr Cory-Wright, went to help him after hearing shouting in his front garden.
He confronted McLoughlin as he tried to flee Mr Cory-Wright's house and was stabbed in the neck.
In a police interview, McLoughlin apologised for killing Mr Buck.
"I'm not sorry for what I did to the nonce, but I'm sorry for what I did to the pensioner."
Witnesses described seeing Mr Buck with his throat slashed "wide open", prosecutor Ann Evans said. He died on his front lawn, with his pet dog sitting beside him.
McLoughlin, who has also admitted robbery, is due to be sentenced this afternoon.
