Racing commentator John Hunt has returned to the airwaves three days after witnessing the killer of his wife and two of his daughters jailed for the rest of his life.
Kyle Clifford was handed a whole-life order at Cambridge Crown Court on Tuesday for murdering his ex-partner Louise Hunt, her sister Hannah and their mother Carol with a crossbow and knife on 9 July last year.
The 26-year-old defendant refused to attend his sentencing and Mr Hunt delivered a message to the killer in court, telling him hell will «roll the red carpet out for you».
On Friday Mr Hunt returned to work on BBC Radio 5 Live to cover the Cheltenham Festival.
The court proceedings were not mentioned during his introduction to the programme.
Mr Hunt held back tears throughout his statement to the court on Tuesday, telling Clifford: «The screams of hell, Kyle. I can hear them faintly now. They’re going to roll the red carpet out for you.»
He described Clifford as a «psychopath» and added: «The impact of what you have done will be taken to my grave.»
Mr Hunt also vowed to «see what my future is» as he said his daughter Hannah «handed me a second chance» by raising the alarm before her death.
He added: «Whilst I am badly damaged, I am absolutely determined to see what my future is surrounded by so many amazing people, and the chance to do that, I firmly believe, has been gifted to me by my incredible Hansie (Hannah Hunt).
«I really believe that had she not managed to show such amazing physical and mental strength in raising the alarm after you, Kyle, fatally injured her, that I would have been your fourth victim that day.
«Hannah handed me a second chance, one that she worked so hard to achieve for me.»

Clifford became «enraged» when Louise ended their 18-month relationship, prosecutors said, leading him to «carefully» plan the murders.
He gained access to the family home by deceiving Carol Hunt before stabbing her to death in a «brutal knife attack».
After killing Ms Hunt he «lay in wait» for an hour until Louise entered the house, when he restrained, raped and murdered her with a crossbow.
He then fatally shot Hannah Hunt when she returned to the property in Bushey, Hertfordshire, after work.
