A man has been found guilty of raping his ex-partner before murdering her and her sister with a crossbow and their mother with a butcher’s knife.
Jurors took just 45 minutes to find triple killer Kyle Clifford, 26, guilty of raping Louise Hunt in a “violent, sexual act of spite” over their breakup.
He had previously admitted to stabbing Carol Hunt to death and fatally shooting her daughters Louise and Hannah Hunt in the crossbow attack at family home in Bushey, but denied raping his former partner.
Clifford was tried in his absence after refusing to leave his cell at HMP Belmarsh, the court was told.
The defendant became “enraged” when his 25-year-old ex-girlfriend Louise ended their 18-month relationship – leading him to “carefully” plan the July 9 murders.
