A man has pleaded guilty to the murders of a woman and three children who were found dead at a house in Derbyshire
A man has pleaded guilty to the murders of a"defenceless" pregnant woman and three young children who were found dead at a house in Derbyshire.
Bendall, 32, is believed to have gone around the family home looking for his victims individually, and then attacking them in different rooms in order to kill them, the court heard. Mr Mably said Bendall attacked them with a claw hammer which he used to hit them over the head and on the upper body."Their skulls were smashed in" and"it was perfectly clear none of the victims stood a chance," Mr Mably added.
He added:"Bet you don't usually get four murders in Killamarsh do you - well, five , because my missus was having a baby."Mr Mably said:"On the night of Saturday September 17, 2021, stretching into the early hours of September 19, the defendant brutally and viciously murdered his then partner, Terri Harris, who is aged 35 - and was in the early stages of pregnancy.
