Police officers failed to carry out checks on a psychiatric patient who murdered a woman, which would have revealed that she had killed before, a report has found.
Nicola Edgington, 32, of Greenwich, virtually decapitated Sally Hodkin, 58, six years after she killed her mother.
The police watchdog said officers had failed to carry out a check on the day of the murder in 2011.
Edgington is due to be sentenced at the Old Bailey later.
She will also be sentenced for attempted murder after she was found guilty of trying to stab Kerry Clark, 22, who she attacked shortly before Mrs Hodkin.
During the trial, the jury heard 999 calls made in the hours before the attacks, during which Edgington said: "I need for the police to come because I've had a nervous breakdown before and I killed someone."
