So-called crossbow killer, Kyle Clifford, has been found guilty of raping ex-girlfriend, Louise Hunt, before killing her with his newly purchased crossbow and bolts. He had already murdered her mother, Carol, with a butchers knife after she let him in, and then killed the other sister, Hannah, with a crossbow bolt, when she arrived home after the second murder, Hannah managed to run upstairs and call for help to no avail. All this was carefully planned in advance, all because Louise dared finish the abusive relationship. Clifford had already pleaded guilty to the murders but denied the rape. It took the jury just 45mins to find him guilty as charged. Given Louise was tied up and gagged & his other victims were not, what was Clifford's game other than a cruel enjoyment of making the prosecutor prove it, in front of Louise's friends and family?
The interesting thing is - aside from his abusive nature - is that Clifford listened to Andrew Tate's podcast an hour before the murders. The only thing I have seen of the Tates - as I avoid them - is one of the Tates smacking a pillow, as if it was a girlfriend (as he yells angrily, his face creased with hatred).
Clifford had been in the army, apparently, as a Pashto interpreter, so I wonder if he was brought up in the religion associated with female subordination, especially with his pie-crust hair-style, given the language is spoken in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
The level of misogyny displayed by Clifford reveals an embittered and entitled mindset and one wonders what society can do to eradicate this type of violence. Louise did not put a foot wrong; she tried hard not to provoke Clifford in any way. What more was Loiuse Hunt and her family supposed to have done to protect herself and them from this chillingly calculating & controlling misogynist?

Less than 24 hours before Kyle Clifford committed the triple murder that would leave his ex-girlfriend, Louise Hunt, her sister and mother dead, he searched the internet for misogynistic podcasts.
What was not revealed to the jury – who have now found the former soldier guilty of rape, adding to his previous admissions of murder – was that the 26-year-old had listened to the influencer Andrew Tate.
Prosecutors argued “the sort of violent misogyny promoted by Tate is the same type of motivation that … fuelled both the murders and the rape”, the four-day trial heard. GUARDIAN
