The daughter of BBC racing commentator John Hunt phoned police after being shot with a crossbow in an attack at the family home, an inquest has heard.
Hannah Hunt, 28, was able to text someone pleading for help, telling them she had been “tied up” at the property in Bushey, Hertfordshire, on the evening of July 9. The text asked the unnamed member of the public to call the police, telling them the person responsible was still at the house, a coroner’s officer told the short hearing. Ms Hunt was then able to call 999 reporting that she had been shot, as had her mother Carol, 61, and sister Louise, 25, the 10-minute hearing at Hertfordshire Coroner’s Court was told. She gave her address before the call cut out. When officers arrived they found her alive in the main doorway of the home with a crossbow bolt still in her chest, Geoffrey Sullivan, senior coroner for Hertfordshire, heard. Carol Hunt died from stab wounds to her chest and abdomen, while her daughters Hannah and Louise died from crossbow bolt injuries, the hearing was told. The coroner adjourned the inquest to allow any criminal proceeding to take place. |

A26-year-old man accused of murdering three members of a BBC commentator’s family has been further charged with raping his daughter.
Kyle Clifford is accused of stabbing Carol Hunt, 61, the wife of John Hunt, to death and fatally shooting Louise, 25, and Hannah Hunt, 28, with a crossbow at their family home in Bushey, Hertfordshire, on July 9. Cambridge Crown Court heard the defendant is also accused of raping Louise on the same day after the charge was added to the indictment against him on Thursday. Clifford, of Enfield, north London, is further accused of one charge of false imprisonment and two counts of possession of offensive weapons – namely a crossbow and a 10-inch butcher’s knife. The defendant, who appeared via videolink from HMP Belmarsh, entered his not guilty pleas to all charges except the new count of rape, for which he is not yet required to enter a plea. A previous court hearing heard Louise had been found tied up when officers attended the property. he false imprisonment charge alleges Clifford “assaulted and unlawfully and injuriously imprisoned Louise Hunt and detained her against her will”. Mr Hunt and his third daughter Amy previously issued a statement following the incident, which said: “The devastation we are experiencing cannot be put into words.” Clifford is due to face trial at the same court on March 3.

[Kyle Clifford admits stabbing BBC star John Hunt's wife to death and murdering his two daughters with a crossbow - but denies rape] https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...nt-family.html [Appearing via video link at Cambridge Crown Court this morning, Clifford pleaded guilty to three counts of murder, one of false imprisonment against Louise Hunt, and two counts of possession of offensive weapons - the crossbow and the knife He pleaded not guilty to a charge of raping Louise. Clifford, of Enfield, North London, will face a trial for the charge of rape at the same court on March 3.] |
Triple murderer Kyle Clifford, who fatally shot his ex-girlfriend and her sister with a crossbow and stabbed their mother to death, felt sorry only for himself afterwards, a detective said.
The 26-year-old stabbed to death his former partner’s mother, Carol Hunt, 61, the wife of BBC and Sky Sports Racing commentator John Hunt, with a knife he had concealed in a rucksack. He had appeared to have a calm conversation with Mrs Hunt on her doorstep after calling at the Hunts’ home before asking to come in. Clifford used a “false pretence to enter the home, saying he wanted to return some of Louise’s (Hunt) possessions”, said Detective Chief Inspector Nick Gardner. The officer, of the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit, said Clifford “also asks Carol if John is at home. Once inside he attacks Carol”. Clifford then collected a crossbow from under a blanket in his car and waited in the house for his former partner Louise Hunt, 25, who was inside a pod in the garden where she ran a dog grooming business. When she came into the house he restrained and raped her before shooting her with a crossbow bolt at the family home in the quiet cul-de-sac of Ashlyn Close in Bushey, Hertfordshire, on July 9 last year. Clifford also fatally shot her sister, Hannah Hunt, 28, when she returned home from work. She managed to make a 999 call while injured, and Clifford was arrested 20 hours later at Lavender Hill Cemetery in Enfield, north London, following a manhunt. Mr Gardner said Clifford’s military background was known early in the investigation and “formed part of the risk assessment in terms of how he would be approached, his knowledge of weapons systems and combat ultimately”. Clifford shot himself in the chest with his crossbow as officers approached him as he hid in undergrowth and he is now “paralysed from the chest down”, Chief Superintendent Jon Simpson said. “If this was an attempt to end his own life he left it to the last possible opportunity and meant that the officers that approached him were exposed to a huge amount of risk,” he said. Despite this, in the moments following his detention they worked to save his life.” He required a 24-hour-a-day police guard “throughout his extensive hospital stay” of 10 weeks, Mr Simpson said. Mr Gardner, who was the senior investigating officer in the case, said that when Clifford was eventually able to be interviewed “he answered no comment to all questions, only showing emotion at the point where questions were about himself”. Asked how Clifford came across in interview, Mr Gardner said: “Self-pitying, unable to recognise the impact on the victims and others, very much only feeling sorry for himself and no-one else.” He said Hannah Hunt’s 999 call, after she had been shot with a crossbow, gave Clifford’s name from the outset. “The significant part of that call is that Hannah named Kyle Clifford from the outset which was an incredibly brave thing for her to do and she got across a lot of key details in that phone call,” said Mr Gardner. “That allowed us to make some decisions early on in the investigation around declaring Kyle Clifford as a suspect.” Clifford admitted at Cambridge Crown Court to three counts of murder, one of false imprisonment against Louise Hunt, and two counts of possession of offensive weapons – the crossbow and the knife. He was found guilty of the rape of Louise Hunt following a trial at the same court. Explaining why prosecutors decided to pursue the count of rape at trial, Mr Gardner said the evidence was “substantial” and “it ultimately goes to the full gravity of his offending”. Mr Gardner described the case as “unprecedented”. “There were no warning signals, there was nothing Louise could have done. |
