Mick and Mairead Philpott were today found guilty of killing six of their children in a house fire in Derby as part of a botched attempt to frame his former lover.
The couple were convicted of the manslaughter of their ‘babies’ after a seven-week trial where Mick Philpott repeatedly sobbed in the dock, collapsing when the prosecution accused him of planning the fire that ended in tragedy.
But the jury refused to accept his excuse that someone had started the fire through his letter box, instead believing he was the mastermind of a plot that went ‘horribly wrong’.
A third defendant, Philpott’s friend Paul Mosley, was also found guilty of six counts of manslaughter.
Those poor innocent children.
I am watching a BBC documentary about this horrific incident and it beggars belief. Mairead Philpott is a brainless waste of space and Mick is a nasty piece of work and a control freak.
Rest in peace Duwayne, Jade, John, Jack, Jesse and Jayden Philpott.
