Kyle Clifford, who has been found guilty of raping his ex-girlfriend in an attack in which he murdered her and her sister with a crossbow and their mother with a knife
The Sun highlights the fact that the crossbow killer, Kyle Clifford, watched videos of the self-proclaimed misogynist, Andrew Tate, before raping his ex-girlfriend and murdering her, her sister and mother. The headline reads "warped by toxic Tate". Prosecutors had argued that "violent misogyny" promoted by Andrew Tate had "fuelled" Clifford's attacks. However, the defence argued this material had too vague a link and was far too prejudicial. The judge agreed it was of limited relevance and of "great possible prejudice", and that it should not be put before the jury. Louise, Hannah and Carol Hunt were the daughters and wife of the BBC racing commentator, John Hunt. The Metro's front page features a mugshot of Clifford, who will be sentenced on Tuesday.
