CROSSBOW killer Kyle Clifford banned his tragic ex-girlfriend from wearing makeup and staying out too late during their relations, it is claimed. The former soldier, 26, is said to have "imposed himself" on 25-year-old Louise Hunt's life during their six-month relationship prior to killing her, her mum Carol, 61, and sister Hannah, 28, in July last year.
Clifford appeared at Cambridge Crown Court yesterday where he dramatically changed his plea on three counts of murder to guilty. He also admitted false imprisonment after tying Louise up and two counts of possession of offensive weapons. This relates to a 10-inch butcher's knife and a crossbow.
Clifford denied raping Louise on July 9 - the same day the family were killed. The false imprisonment charge states Clifford allegedly "assaulted and unlawfully and injuriously imprisoned Louise Hunt and detained her against her will". Louise's last post on X - just six days before she died on July 9 - was a retweeted message which praised people who decided to leave abusive and controlling relationships.
The message read: "I admire women who leave whether you left after the 1st time or the 12th time.". The post - sent on July 3 last year - continued: "If ppl was calling you dumb for 11 years but in the 12th year you decided you was done...it takes ALOT of strength to break a tie. it takes ALOT of self love to choose yo self.".
