My name is John Hunt and I am blessed as Carol's husband and Hannah, Louise and Amy's father.
Thank you for reducing the guilty judgment. That you had to think that the evidence was purely, there was Kyle who chose not to admit responsibility.
You too are the victim of his callige, cowardly, vengeful behaviors and I wish he hadn't put you through it.
I wanted to deliver these words like that, face to face with Kyle. I will continue to pretend I do that.
When I was first invited to provide a victim impact statement, I initially misunderstood the goal.
Do I really have to describe the impact of killing three -quarters of my family?
But then I realized that this was my last chance to say what I want to tell you specifically, Kyle, words that will also be aimed at your family who will express guilt for the rest of their lives.
I know you appreciated them so badly from all the conversations we had, but I suppose even they should be damaged by what you did.
I also want to confirm the world to the world, especially how Louise has behaved in a textbook, collapse adults, understand the conflict to say goodbye to someone she ever loved, but not allow those memories to cloud her certain knowledge that you just was not the person she needed.
You have failed.
I am so proud of all my girls. Unlike you Kyle, they made the right choices to improve themselves as people at every step of their lives.
Louise enjoyed more success and fulfillment in one morning than you reach in your entire miserable life.
Do you remember Kyle, how friendly were we all for you? Help with you and Louise enjoy traveling away, do you remember how she loved a chic hotel? You were always invited for meals.
A Sunday lunch in the pub or a special celebration, you are always welcome.
The only Christmas you spent together was at our home. Was it four or five days you spent with us? The food, the games, the laughter, the normality … What is it about that blissful existence that you hated so much, Kyle?
You can't handle how pleasant it was, such a contrast with what you were used to.
The trips to Italy, Disneyland and much more; Louise gave your relationship so much effort that you were never able or willing to match.
We have all offered you kindness, especially Carol. She had picked up your personal shortcomings from the start.
She felt your immaturity, but always knew that Louise would work out things. Carol still showed her condolences until she answered the door to you on July 9.
Do you remember her kindness Kyle; How she encouraged you to get some relationship help and guidance for fear that you would never be able to maintain a lasting relationship.
You accepted that advice quietly in front of the door and then, seconds later she stabbed her fiercely eight times and ended her life.
When I challenged myself about how you could cheat us all, I just say that you are a psychopath who, for the duration of your time together with Louise, could disguise yourself as an ordinary person.
You have reserved your best, one-real version of yourself for the times that you were in our house.
You have succeeded in maintaining that veneer of decency during the first year of your time at Louise, but you could not maintain it in the early 2024.
Although Carol and I have never witnessed alarming behavior, your visits became less frequent.
You started the first of two things we know, your aversion to a hard work went on while you have ruined another job at Reynolds
It wasn't just the army that you found worthless. I often think of the list that Louise wrote to herself to remind her of the reasons that you are inadequate.
Racism. She was rightly disgusting.
Your smaller language. The fact that your family is a mess. Like all women should do, she did you despite repeated deception and said that enough is enough.
I hope that women around the world will regard Louise's courage as a radiant beacon for their lives. If you think enough is enough, then it's.
I would like to remind you of Kyle, how graceful Louise was for you in that last text. This is what she said on June 26, the morning after she finished you face to face.
She texted to thank you for what was a great year together, and explained how much she ever loved you, that she never wanted a hostility to develop between you and that she wanted you to take care of yourself.
You text back: 'Thank you for the clarity Louise, so that we can both start our healing process. I love you so much and I will do it for a very long time. I will always be here for you if you ever need me, please don't hesitate. I wish you the very best and also take care of yourself. '
The difference was, we now know that Louise meant every word while you just lied.
You didn't like her to prevent you from having those two things in the spring of last year?
Or to start planning her and her family only a few days later. And that a horrible rape on her part of the plan was. Your levels of misogynia are not on the scale.
Louise's favorite novel from her Schooleeaays was the classic of Harper Lee, To kill a spot bird. She was fascinated by the goodness of Atticus Finch, both as a father and as a lawyer.
She often quoted lines from the novel to match the challenges of life. One of those quotes that comes to mind at the moment is that of Miss Maudie who re -confirms the claim of Atticus that it is a sin to kill a Mockingbird.
She said: 'Your fathers are right. Mockingbirds do not do one thing except making music that we can enjoy.
They do not eat on the gardens of people, do not nest in corn, they do not do one thing, but sing their hearts for us.
That is why it is a sin to kill a spot bird. 'Their lives spent their time in the same way in the same way with bringing joy and color and happiness into the lives of others. You killed three beautiful spot birds, Kyle.
So, to remind you of it, for a four -hour period, wait brutally carol, more than an hour until Louise entered the house.
Your incapacity for work, raped her and when you realized that Hannah came home, you shot Louise in the back.
I can't imagine a cowardly act. You couldn't look her in the eye. You killed Hannah minutes later. So four hours.
A few weeks later I also brought them through Kyle for four hours; In the funeral directors.
The usual room was not big enough for three bodies, but they removed a partition wall so that we could all be together.
I was sitting with Louise on the right for a while, she looked so peaceful and Hannah to my left.
I could not reach completely to hold their hands at the same time. Amy and I placed a photo of Chester in the right hand of Louise.
Carol was at the top of the room. She was dressed in a beautiful orange dress that she had bought for a wedding that we went a month in advance.
I stroked her hair and told her how much I loved her.
I thanked her that she was such a great partner in life and a great mother. They were my four hours of kyle.
And what about me? The impact of what you have done will be brought to my grave, but on the way I want you to know that I am strong in front of you today.
Because you are sent to a fate that is much larger than death, I can draw on the love and power that I still feel of the girls in every moment of every day. I am lucky.
I have the most wonderful daughter, Amy who gives me so much focus and goal. I have Gareth and Alex.
I have my extensive family and reach much further than my mother, brothers and sister, aunts and uncles and cousins ​​and nieces.
I have a lot of friends who look for me per hour. Carol's friends are mine and I now have a renewed relationship with the best friends of Hannah and Louise.
I will always be there for them and they will also be there for me.
So although I am so badly damaged, I am determined to see what my future is, surrounded by so many great people.
And the chance to do was given to me by my incredible Hannah.
I am firmly convinced that if she has not succeeded in showing such a amazing physical and mental force in generating the alarm after you were deadly injured, I would have been your fourth victim that day.
Hannah gave me a second chance, one that she worked so hard to reach for me.
Do you really think what she did for me, I will light up her memory and example by just giving up?
Although the days are difficult and feel in many occasions, impossible, I will channel my inner Atticus Finch at all times.
He said: 'I want you to see what real courage is. Instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand, it is when you know that you will be licked before you start, but you start and see it whatever happens.
And now comes the time that your fate is confirmed on this earth.
Every person in the world I think of mothers and fathers in particular, especially those daughters, now expects the formality of a life sentence. Never again to make choices yourself.
Only occasionally breathe in fresh air. To eat if someone else tells you to eat. But remember one thing.
Whatever sentence you will receive, what misery is in front of you in the coming 60 years.
Remember that after your days on earth are ready, on your dying day, there will be no release for you.
The screams of hell, Kyle, I can now hear them weak.
The red carpet comes out for you.
At that moment, when the person you could have met the person you are, you will realize that your miserable fate will last forever.
