Crossbow killer 'raped ex-girlfriend after break-up'
Briefly

Kyle Clifford, a 26-year-old man, is on trial for the murder of his ex-girlfriend and her family, as well as for rape. The prosecution claims that he attacked Louise Hunt, her mother Carol, and sister Hannah in a violent act of revenge after Louise ended their relationship. Clifford allegedly lured them into a false sense of security before committing the murders with a crossbow and a knife. Although he confessed to the murders, he denies the rape charge, which is central to the jury's decision-making.
“During the course of this prolonged incident, the prosecution alleges that the defendant raped Louise Hunt. It was a violent, sexual act of spite, before he then killed her.”
“He had gained access to the family home by deceiving Carol Hunt, before stabbing her to death in a brutal knife attack.”
