Telegraph: Richard Horne Murder Of Wife, Self Was “Frenzied Knife Attack”

The Telegraph has issued a horrifying sequences of events challenging the initial story on the murder/suicide of cartoonist and children's book illustrator Richard "Harry Horse" Horne and his wife, Mandy. Rather than the tragic tale of two marrieds, one with financial difficulties and the other with MS, dying arms after a perhaps mutually agreed-upon drug overdose, the family of Mandy Horne has released information that the artist stabbed his ailing wife so many times he broke a knife off in her body. He also killed their pets, and then turned the knife (now at least the second employed) on himself. It is believed that Horne had taken drugs, and mutilated his own genitals during the ordeal.
