Scots teen stabbed grandparents to death in Christmas bloodbath after 'Woman in Black voice' told him to
05.07.2023 - 16:15 / dailyrecord.co.uk
A mentally ill teenager stabbed his grandparents to death because a voice in his head told him to "kill them", a court heard today.
Tobyn Salvatore admitted subjecting Denis and Mary Fell to a merciless knife attack, even cutting off his grandmother’s hand as she tried to protect herself from his crazed onslaught.
He later told psychiatrists he attributed the voice he heard to the "Woman in Black", a character from a horror film he had watched over 80 times. He has been confined to the State Hospital ahead of sentencing in September.
Deeply religious Salvatore told doctors: "I believe if my grandparents died, they would be resurrected" claiming that a quote from the Bible that "all of your dead loved ones will be resurrected" had been in his mind at the time.
The High Court at Livingston was told that Salvatore bought an eight inch, ultra-sharp, kitchen knife and a 10 inch butcher’s knife off the internet two months before the bloodbath, claiming he intended to commit suicide by cutting off his own head.
However, he instead of harming himself used the blades to savagely injure his grandparents after a furious row over a Christmas hamper he had taken up to his room.
The two 73-year-olds died from deep stab wounds to their necks in a bloodbath at their home in Livingston, West Lothian, on Boxing Day 2021.
After the killings, Salvatore calmly changed out of his blood soaked clothing and had a bath before going to the local police station and confessing: “I’ve murdered someone – my grandparents”.
Police Officers who forced entry to the couple’s home at 82 Raeburn Rigg found Denis Fell’s body lying in the hallway. His wife Mary was found lying in the living room.
Her severed hand was found in the hallway to the right of her
