A dying mother repeatedly told her son "I love you" as he stabbed her to death, it has been revealed
Jason Nellist, 41, started the day by killing his pet cat Gizmo with a rope after he had told a friend the day before that he wanted to end his family's "nightmare life". Later that day, he plunged a knife into his mother Julie Clark, 59.
As he did, she pleaded: "What are you doing?"
But he went on to stab her more times and she kept reassuring him of her love for him as he killed her. After stabbing his mum to death, Nellist walked in front of a van in an attempt to commit suicide but he survived.
