The 40-year-old was told he would never be released after killing two men he knew from his time at a homeless hostel in Newquay, Cornwall. Their bodies were dismembered and hidden near his cabin in the woods. Desborough - a fan of the serial killer show Dexter - murdered Daniel Coleman, 43, and Claudio Aquilino, 57, last summer. While waiting for his trial to start, he strangled his prison cellmate, Steven Kempster, after only a few days because he was irritated by his snoring. Desborough was found guilty of that murder in March and of the other two killings on Tuesday. The judge at Winchester Crown Court told him he was "a highly dangerous individual who has no regard for the lives of people who you think are worthless". "You are a person who can kill in extreme violence, with no remorse or indeed reflection on your actions," said Mr Justice Saini. Police have also revealed they are still reviewing the unexplained deaths of two men and two women who were at the homeless shelter at the same time as Desborough, between December 2024 and April 2025. Detective Superintendent Rachael Bentley said they currently don't believe Desborough is a suspect but the investigation into the deaths at Sandy Lodge Hotel is ongoing with "some final reviews to be done". Officers attended each of the deaths at the time and inquiries suggested natural causes. Read more:Who are the whole life prisoners who will never be released? The coroner paused its investigation when Desborough was arrested for murder and a review began that included extra forensic work, looking at CCTV and taking statements. "I said before there's no other information that's come into the investigation that suggests that he's linked to any of the deaths," said DS Bentley. "We don't believe we're looking for any victims, but I do want to stress that the investigations are ongoing. They are going to be reviewed again now the trial has concluded." Desborough, who weighs nearly 18st, killed Coleman and Aquilino and spent their money on drink and drugs. He claimed they had left Cornwall, but their bodies were found in Sticker Woods, near St Austell, where he lived in a wooden cabin. Some 1,900 burned bone fragments from Mr Aquilino were also discovered in a stream. Parts of Mr Coleman's body were found in a shallow grave nearby. His genitals have never been found and police haven't ruled out that they may have been deliberately removed. Prosecutors said Desborough was jealous of Mr Coleman because he had developed a sexual interest in his friend's ex-wife. The killer also told a forensic biologist he "particularly enjoyed the dismemberment scenes" in TV series Dexter. The father-of-one denied the murders and told jurors it was a "series of unfortunate circumstances" the two men died on his land within a short space of time.

The 56-year-old, who shot to fame in The Commitments and later with his band The Frames, died following the single-vehicle crash near the Strawberry Beds area in Lucan just before 4.30am. Irish police did not name Hansard as the victim, but said in a statement that "the motorcyclist, a man in his 50s, was treated at the scene but was pronounced deceased a short time later". The statement continued: "The scene has been preserved for examination by Garda [Irish police] forensic collision investigators. Local traffic diversions are currently in place." Hansard, a married father-of-one, won an Academy Award for best original song in 2008, for Falling Slowly, co-written with Marketa Irglova. The song featured in the hit indie movie, Once, in which the pair starred. He played Outspan Foster in the cult hit The Commitments, the 1991 film based on Roddy Doyle's first novel. He performed as a musician with The Frames and the duo The Swell Season, and also as a solo act. During his career, Hansard collaborated with artists such as Eddie Vedder, Bono and Bruce Springsteen. A clip of him performing on stage with Springsteen in 2013 was shared on his Instagram account less than 24 hours before his death. He was well-known for busking with the U2 frontman on Dublin's Grafton Street every Christmastime, and was involved with various charitable and social causes. He also played a powerful rendition of Fairytale of New York during the funeral for Shane MacGowan in 2023. Police are appealing to anyone who witnessed the crash to contact them, and have urged motorists who may have dashcam footage to come forward.

Anne shares what she's been hearing about the new top team at the Foreign Office and Ed Milliband reveals what his grandfather would have said about his new job. Meanwhile, can Andy Burnham really fix Britain's social care system? That's the big question as the new prime minister hosts cross-party talks on one of the country's biggest challenges. There's just one problem: the invitations only went out on Tuesday, and neither Kemi Badenoch nor Ed Davey will be in the room. The Conservative leader is sending the shadow health secretary in her place, while Davey will join by Zoom. Nigel Farage and the Green Party's Zack Polanski weren't invited. Sam and Anne dig into what, if anything, today's meeting could achieve.

After preliminary talks with his representatives, Liverpool have prepared an opening offer and are set to formalise their interest with an official approach. Signing a winger has been a priority since the departure of Mo Salah, and Barcola has been on Liverpool's radar for a number of years. Got Sky? Watch Premier League LIVE on your phone📱No Sky? Get Sky Sports or stream with no contract on NOW📺 The 23-year-old has two years left on his PSG contract and has indicated he will not be signing a new one amid frustrations at a lack of game time. The opportunity to join Liverpool is said to appeal to the player. The key to getting any deal moving will be PSG's willingness to reduce the price tag on the man they bought for around £40m back in 2023. Valuations of top-level players this summer have been high. Sky Sports News reported on Tuesday that PSG value the France international as high as £145m (€170m), however other sources have now indicated it could be around £128.5m (€150m). The success of Andoni Iraola's teams at Bournemouth and Rayo Vallecano centred around the pace, energy and work-rate from his wingers, so Barcola could be a key piece of the Spaniard's new Liverpool jigsaw. The fact that Barcola has won nine major trophies in the last two years, including two Champions League titles, shows the calibre of player they are trying to bring to Anfield. Arsenal also hold an interest in Barcola. Why is Barcola wanted by Liverpool and Arsenal? Sky Sports' Adam Bate: Bradley Barcola could be the most expensive transfer of this summer window with Liverpool and Arsenal among the clubs chasing the Paris Saint-Germain forward. But why is he so prized? He has achieved plenty already. But there is more to come. The 23-year-old France international has just won the Champions League with PSG back-to-back but had to be content with coming off the bench in both finals. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's arrival from Napoli in January of 2025 established him as first choice on the left. But just because Barcola is not a guaranteed starter in Paris does not mean that he is not a guaranteed star. This is a player with pace, physicality and intelligence, someone whose skills have been honed under Luis Enrique. With Barcola, the potential is as vast as the fee. Read Adam Bate's feature on Bradley Barcola here... Could Arsenal come in for Barcola amid Vinicius Jr blow? Vinicius Junior will be staying at Real Madrid beyond this summer, Sky Sports News has been told. The Spanish club have no intention of selling him and are confident he will agree a new contract. This is despite the interest of Arsenal, who are monitoring his situation closely with a year remaining on his current deal. Sky Sports News' Dharmesh Sheth said this week: "Arsenal will continue to keep an eye on Vinicius Jr's situation still. He hasn't signed that new contract yet. As it stands, he has a year left on his contract. That's why they are exploring the conditions of a possible deal. "How Andrea Berta does his business at Arsenal is very clear. It's not about one target and then the risk of that target not coming. "They try to get their ducks in a row with three or four deals, get as far down the line as they can with as many targets as possible, and then decide which player they are going to go for. "One of those players is Bradley Barcola. He's intimated to PSG that he's not going to sign a new contract. That's primarily because in the biggest games last season, he was on the bench. "He doesn't want to go through that again. It looks like he could become available for a transfer."

FIFA wants to set up a separate $20bn company to run its competitions, with 20% of it ($4bn) offered to external investors. Joshua Kushner, the brother of Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner, is reportedly in line to be the lead investor in the subsidiary, to be called FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE). The plans announced on Tuesday have sparked accusations football is being "sold off" and follow a string of controversies surrounding the recent World Cup. And now Blatter, who ran FIFA for 17 years, has spoken out. He told news agency Reuters: "Football belongs to no individual and to no institution. It belongs to the people. "If FIFA were transferred into a profit-oriented corporate structure, it would lose its soul." A spokesperson for England's Football Association (FA) said it had been "completely unaware" of the proposal. They said the organisation was "deeply concerned about the lack of process and governance to get to this point, and the apparent substance and principles involved". "When the proposal is shared in the full and transparent way now promised by FIFA, we will make our views clear, and comment further," the FA added. European governing body UEFA has also savaged the plan and will hold an emergency online meeting on Thursday. It urged clubs and national football associations to speak out and said the proposal "crosses a line that football's governing institutions should never cross". "The soul and governance of football are not assets to trade - especially with zero transparency as to who gains financially. None of us are the owners of football. It is not FIFA's to sell," said UEFA. European nations are discussing boycotting the World Cup if FIFA president Gianni Infantino pushes ahead. Infantino has promised the new entity will solely be focused on "generating as much value as possible" for national associations to invest in homegrown football. Regional bodies 'not consulted' However, regional governing bodies said they had been blindsided and accused FIFA of not consulting them. CONCACAF, which looks after football in North and Central America and the Caribbean, said it discovered the plans second hand - despite its leader, Victor Montagliani, being a FIFA vice president. It said it was disappointed details were "shared publicly before any discussion with the relevant governance bodies and stakeholders has taken place". The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) also said it was caught unawares by the plan. "Initiatives of this scale and consequence must be founded upon the principles of good governance, transparency and meaningful consultation," the AFC said. A similar rebuke came from the European Football Clubs (EFC) organisation, led by Infantino's global football power rival, Nasser Al-Khelaifi, president of Paris Saint-Germain and chair of the beIN media network. It said the EFC had "serious concern" over the "sudden, unilateral media briefings and announcement by FIFA". Former FIFA ‌president Sepp Blatter, who ran the organisation for 17 years, also criticised the proposals. He told news agency Reuters: "Football belongs to no individual and to no institution. It belongs to the people. "If FIFA were transferred into a profit-oriented corporate structure, it would lose its soul." The head of the Czech FA is a current outlier in supporting FIFA's plan. David Trunda told Mark Kleinman, Sky's City editor, it would provide valuable extra funding for grassroots football and infrastructure. "Of course we need more details, but my personal point of view is that I can see the positive impact of FIFA's intentions," Mr Trunda said. Infantino issues deadline Sky News sports correspondent Rob Harris said Infantino had given national associations until 19 September to back his plan, with a boosted $40m incentive to accept. He made the offer in a letter to FIFA's 211 member associations. Infantino warned they would have much less cash for development, grassroots football and national teams if they didn't support his plan. He said the launch of FFE needed the backing of its ruling council and more than 50% of its members. Infantino wrote: "Should neither condition be satisfied, FIFA will continue as planned with the Forward Programme 4.0… meaning approximately $10m per ME [Member Association] for the next cycle." One football figure told The Times it was "pure bribery". UEFA said the deadline for associations to support the proposal "or have the one-off payout offer withdrawn... says everything you need to know about this plan". "FIFA cannot continue to use our sport to enrich themselves and their friends," it added. FIFA has not commented on how Infantino might benefit personally from delivering the $20bn venture. Read more:World Cup winners get US-style championship rings In his letter, Infantino called his offer a "singular and unique funding opportunity only for those Member Associations who wish to participate, with their decision to be made by 19 September 2026 so we can plan ahead and with funds to be available immediately as of 1 January 2027". He said the new company would be "fully focused on one target objective; generating as much value as possible for FIFA's Member Associations". Thrive Capital - an investment firm run by Joshua Kushner, is being positioned as the lead backer of the deal. Infantino has been accused of being too close to Mr Trump. He awarded him a special FIFA peace prize in the run up to the World Cup and suspended a red card given to America's star player after the president called him during the tournament. The growing commercialisation of the event, such as soaring ticket prices and the introduction of hydration breaks (which allow more adverts to be shown), has also been widely criticised. FIFA's boss said critics of this summer's World Cup were "consumed by hate" and had spread "false rumours". In a statement on his own and FIFA's Instagram accounts on Monday, he said they missed all the "joy and happiness" the tournament had brought.

Mitch Winehouse's own legal costs also amounted to at least £950,000 in the failed bid against Naomi Parry and Catriona Gourlay. He claimed the women had profited from selling dozens of the musician's items at auctions in the US in 2021 and 2023, and argued they had "deliberately concealed" their sale. But Judge Sarah Clarke KC dismissed the claim earlier this year, finding that he "knew all along" about the intended sale and only afterwards started to pursue them for money in an "aggressive and unpleasant way". In a judgment on Wednesday, the judge said: "The claimant chose to bring an inherently weak claim, pursue it aggressively and relentlessly to the end, and make serious and unfounded allegations against the defendants which significantly damaged their reputations, career prospects, financial security and health." As of April, Ms Parry's costs were estimated to be £715,361, while Ms Gourlay's were £487,132, Judge Clarke said. Mr Winehouse must pay interim payments to both women - £569,330 to Ms Parry and £394,521 to Ms Gourlay - within the next two weeks. He has also been ordered to pay their legal costs on an indemnity basis, which means those recovering their costs generally gain a higher percentage of what they spent than is usual. This is often awarded when one side has behaved particularly unreasonably. Read more from Sky News:Half of England in drought, Environment Agency saysSerial killer gets whole life order - as police probe four deaths Judge Clarke said that in pursuing his claim, Mr Winehouse had "deliberately turned this case into large-scale and expensive litigation, in circumstances calculated to exert commercial pressure on the defendants to settle on his terms". He also aimed to expand his claim "very late in the day", which caused the six-day trial in December and January to overrun by three days, while he "actively courted publicity for his serious allegations, including in the press and in court when he knew the press were present". Judge Clarke said: "This deliberate course of action was undertaken by the claimant with the aim of damaging the defendants' reputations and professional prospects in order to force them to settle the litigation on his terms and pay him the proceeds of sale of their items. "He did so, knowing that they were vulnerable both financially and in status, and that his public allegations and insinuations of impropriety would only increase their vulnerability. "The fact that he knowingly and deliberately did this to two young women who had stood faithfully by Amy, and also by him and his family, and who had demonstrated their honesty and integrity over many years, makes his unreasonable conduct particularly serious."

Korda is the pre-tournament favourite to claim a record-equalling third major of the season, having already won the Chevron Championship and US Women's Open during an impressive campaign. The US Women's Open success saw her claim a one-shot win over Gaby Lopez and Hull, who now has five runner-up finishes in majors - including two in the last three years at the AIG Women's Open - without the elusive breakthrough victory.

Key dates, results in 2026Get Sky Sports or stream golf with no contract Hull said ahead of the final major of the year that it 'hurt' to have suffered so many near-misses, with Georgia Hall still the last English female major champion in 2018, but Korda remains impressed by her contending so frequently. "That's sometimes how she goes - it's about putting yourself in that position [to contend]," Korda explained in her pre-tournament press conference. "You can't control what others are doing, but she [Hull] is doing something right to always be there, be relevant and be in the hunt. "It's kind of like Sam Burns [in the men's game]. He's been in the hunt a lot during major championships and hasn't got it done. Eventually he will. You can't get discouraged - it has to be encouraging. "She [Hull] is such a great personality. I think it would be great for her to do it [win a major] on home soil, too. She's an amazing player with a funny personality - I enjoy playing with her any time. "I think it would be great for the game of golf." 'Authentic' Korda pushes for more major success Hull described Korda's impressive campaign - including four worldwide wins - as 'unbelievable' for the game of golf, with the world No 1 having to deal with additional pressures during her dominant periods in the sport. "I think that I'm at a stage in my career and at a stage where I'm just going to be myself," she added. "If people don't like it, that's fine. If that inspires the next generation, that's great - that's what I would like. "No one is going to make me go this direction, that direction. I'm going to go the direction I want and be very authentic. I feel like when I'm not it drains my battery a lot, doing what I don't want to do. "I feel like I've kind of figured it out where I'm like 'okay, I enjoy doing this' or 'I'm going to say yes to this because that's what I want to do'. If that grows the game and makes people watch me, I think that's great. But I have had to learn that." Korda had posted 10 consecutive top-eight finishes worldwide until a shock missed cut at the Amundi Evian Championship earlier this month, snapping a 34-event cut streak stretching back nearly two years. "Evian is just a funky golf course," Korda explained. "I didn't play that bad actually, if I'm being honest. It's golf - just because you're playing well, it doesn't mean you're invincible and you're going to make every cut and be in the top 10 every single week. "There will be weeks you just don't have it and that's the reality of it. I feel like I've done this long enough where I've missed enough cuts that it's just about the bounce-back." Korda failed to contend at last year's AIG Women's Open, having finished runner-up to Lydia Ko in the previous edition, while a victory this week would see her confirm her place in the LPGA Hall of Fame and complete the career Grand Slam. "Any time I'm in contention at a major and I sniff the title, I'm going to be a little emotional," Korda admitted about narrowly missing out in 2024. "That's why we get up early in the morning and grind on our game, mentally, physically, to be in contention. "To sniff it at that venue [St Andrews] obviously hurt a little bit. Before then I didn't have the best outcomes at the Women's Open - I didn't really play too well. "To be able to play in that weather and be in contention on a links golf course was definitely a little bit motivating, because I knew that I could contend."
