1986: 'Evil' Bamber jailed for family murders

A 24-year-old man has been jailed for life for killing five members of his family at their farmhouse in Essex.

Jeremy Bamber will now serve a minimum of 25 years for the murders of his step-parents, sister and her two six-year-old sons.

As the guilty verdict was delivered at Chelmsford Crown Court, Bamber slumped slightly but gave no further reaction.

Sentencing Bamber to five life prison terms, the judge Mr Justice Drake said he was "warped and evil beyond belief".
