Triple killer Kyle Clifford holds women ‘in utter contempt,’ judge says as Hunt family murderer handed whole-life order

A judge who sentenced triple killer Kyle Clifford to a whole-life order for the murders of his ex-partner Louise Hunt, 25, her sister Hannah Hunt, 28, and their mother Carol Hunt, 61, described him as a “jealous man soaked in self-pity, who holds women in utter contempt."

The 26-year-old refused to face the family of his victims during his sentencing on Tuesday, 11 March, at Cambridge Crown Court.

He was told he will never be released from prison for killing the family of BBC racing commentator John Hunt.

Mr Hunt delivered a tearful victim impact statement in Clifford’s absence before the sentence was passed, saying: "You will realise your miserable fate will last for eternity.”
