A court has heard that the daughter of an elderly couple who were stabbed to death in their Portadown home, tried mouth to mouth resusitation on her father.
Michael and Marjorie Cawderry, who were both 83, died in a "vicious and frenzied" attack after returning home from shopping.
Thomas Scott McEntee, who at the time of the double killing was living at a hostel in Kilkeel, has admitted two counts of manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.
The 41 year old was told earlier he'll be sentenced next week for the unlawful killings, which Belfast Crown Court heard he committed whilst experiencing an "extremely disturbed mental state".
