Former Leicestershire police inspector Toby Day unlawfully killed his wife and six-year-old daughter




Former Leicestershire police inspector Toby Day unlawfully killed his wife and six-year-old daughter before taking his own life, a coroner ruled today.

Mr Day, who was sacked by Leicestershire police for misconduct, stabbed his wife Samantha and youngest daughter Genevieve at their home in Robin Crescent, Melton, before turning the knife on himself.

Rutland and North Leicestershire Coroner Trevor Kirkman gave the verdict today at an inquest in Loughborough.
