Man charged with murder of three women in Bushey

A man has been charged in connection with a triple murder which occurred in Bushey on Tuesday 9 July.

Detectives from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire (BCH) Major Crime Unit have now questioned a man who had been under arrest since 10 July.

Yesterday evening (Monday 16 September) Kyle Clifford, aged 26, of Rendlesham Road, Enfield, was charged with:

• Three counts of murder
• False imprisonment
• Two counts of possession of offensive weapons

He was subsequently remanded into custody and will next appear remotely at Westminster Magistrates Court today (Tuesday 17 September) at 10am.

Officers had previously been unable to interview Kyle Clifford whilst he received treatment for an injury in hospital, where he remained under arrest.

Detective Chief Inspector Nick Gardner, from the BCH Major Crime Unit, said: “Our thoughts remain with the Hunt family and their loved ones as they continue to come to terms with their loss.

“Over the past couple of months, we have been working hard to gather as much evidence as possible and establish the full circumstances of what happened that day. We have now managed to secure charges against Kyle Clifford in connection with the murders of Carol, Hannah and Louise Hunt. 

“Although it has taken some time to reach this stage, we can now move forward with the judicial process and seek justice for their family.”
