The heartbroken family of an 'inseparable' couple who were stabbed to death by their son say they fear they 'will never get to know the truth of what happened'. Lee Tipping, 36, was found guilty by a jury last month of the murders of his parents, teenage sweethearts Tricia Livesey and Anthony Tipping, at the home all three shared.
Tipping - who was deemed fit to be interviewed and was subsequently charged with both murders after initially being detained by police under the Mental Health Act - was jailed for life today. He was ordered to serve a minimum of 27 years before he is eligible for parole.
Tipping stabbed his dad at least 131 times before turning the knife on his frail mum and inflicting at least 153 stab and slash wounds to her six-stone body, a court heard. He then fled to Manchester Airport in an attempt to leave the country but panicked when he saw armed police and later tried to check into a Premier Inn in Manchester city centre, where he was later arrested, reports Lancs Live.
Tricia, 57, and Anthony, 60 - who first met as teenagers - were found dead inside their home in the Lancashire village of Higher Walton, near Preston, in November last year. A post-mortem examination showed they both died from multiple stab wounds.
In a moving statement issued by police after today's sentencing hearing at Preston Crown Court, the couple's family hit out at 'lies' Tipping told in court about his parents - claims that were rejected by the sentencing judge who said they provided nothing but the best of care for him after he had spent periods as an inpatient at a mental health unit.
