Kyle Clifford has also been convicted of raping Louise Hunt before killing her with a crossbow. The women were the wife and daughters of BBC racing commentator John Hunt.

Clifford, who will be sentenced for three counts of murder, one of rape, one of false imprisonment and two counts of possession of an offensive weapon, is facing a life sentence.

The 26-year-old has admitted shooting ex-girlfriend Louise Hunt, and her sister Hannah Hunt, with a crossbow, and fatally stabbing their mother, 61-year-old Carol Hunt, last year.
