FACTFILE

 

28th August 2001, after drinking with colleagues, Bluestone returned to his home in Gravesend and watched police soap opera 'The Bill'.

 

He then argued with his pregnant wife Jill, and used a claw hammer to kill her and their infant sons Henry and Chandler, who were in their pyjamas. He also attacked his two other children, Jack and Jessica, before hanging himself.

6-year-old Jessica raised the alarm by knocking on a neighbours door saying, 'Daddy banged my head on the floor. I can't get my mummy out of my mind, she's got blood coming out of her neck. I don't want daddy to kill mummy'.

 

Jessica told police, "My brother came downstairs and I told him to go back upstairs. Daddy started hitting my head on the wooden floor while he was hitting my mum's head.
'Mummy told me to go next door and get the police. Her head was bleeding and it was all in her hair.
'Daddy hit mummy in the head and in the neck and that's why mummy and daddy won't wake up.'

 

It was suggested that Jill had told her husband she was leaving him.
