(CLO) Kyle Clifford, 26 years old, admitted to murdering a girl named Louise Hunt, her sister Hannah Hunt and their mother Carol Hunt at the Hunt family's home in London, UK.
Kyle Clifford, 26, shot dead Louise Hunt, 25, and her sister, Hannah Hunt, 28, with a crossbow, and stabbed to death their mother, Carol Hunt, 61, in a four-hour attack at their home in Bushey, Hertfordshire, on 9 July 2024. The three victims were the wife and daughter of BBC horse racing commentator John Hunt.

Clifford began planning his attack on Louise two days after she ended her 18-month relationship with him.
On 22 January, he pleaded guilty to murder, unlawful imprisonment and possession of two dangerous weapons, an MX-405 crossbow and a 25cm knife. However, he denied raping Louise on the day of her murder.
After Louise broke up with him on June 26 last year, Clifford began researching murder weapons and watching pornography. Less than 24 hours before the murder, he searched for podcasts by Andrew Tate, a misogynistic social media influencer.
Clifford bought a 30-metre length of rope, a crossbow, an air gun, a 25cm knife and two cans of petrol. Security camera footage shows he also bought two rolls of duct tape, which he used to bind Louise’s hands and feet.
Clifford killed Carol Hunt within two minutes of breaking into the Hunt family home at 2.39pm. He waited more than an hour for Louise to finish gardening before tying, gagging and raping her. He murdered her more than two hours later before shooting Hannah dead with the same crossbow as she returned home from work.
"He not only planned to kill, but also intended to commit acts of sexual violence to express his hatred," prosecutor Morgan stressed.
Detective Chief Inspector Nick Gardner from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire major crime unit said: "This was not an impulsive crime, but a carefully planned attack."
Clifford was the subject of a manhunt for several hours before he was found wounded at Lavender Hill Cemetery in Enfield on 10 July 2024. He had shot himself in the chest with a crossbow and is now paralysed from the chest down.
"Kyle Clifford is a murderer and rapist who committed brutal acts against three women. He will be sentenced to life in prison, which is fitting for the brutality of his crimes," said Lisa Kiff, senior prosecutor.
