He will speak about things Tipping said when he was arrested. Mr Ford QC said the jury must consider the defendant had not had a minutes sleep before making the comments about his father attacking his mum. The scene on the landing must have been pretty traumatic and the arrest scene was highly charged with armed police."He wasnt in a good place mentally and perhaps one or two things were said in the throat of that environment, in drink, were not accurate", Mr Ford says.
"Those two men were at home together all day, every day. The defendant seems to have withdrawn from the family somewhat and the family may have become a little less paitient of him. One night his parents came home from the pub and there was a fight over a broken door. There had been a fight the day before.
By the time he was at Liverpool John Lennon Airport, Mr Ford says Tipping was showing the kind of obsessional behaviour associated with his condition. Tipping turned round and drove home, before sitting in his car outside his own house, where his parents lay dead. He sat for a long time, according to doorbell camera footage.
As a child he was taken in by Mr Nuttall at the local youth club, who described Tipping as 'not the full shilling'. Martin Riding, Tricia and Tip's brother-in law. Do you think he spoke patiently about Lee Tipping? He heard Tip refer to him as a little s**t. That was a phrase Tricia used about her son in her message to her sister.
"He has a condition he must deal with. I apologised for him a couple of times during the trial. Whatever you think of him personally, please don't hold it against him when deciding on the case. He is not as mentally well as others. "It is trial by you. It is trial by jury. All I ask is you put all the parts together and reach true verdicts on the evidence you have heard."Mr McLachlan says Lee Tipping did not come to court voluntarily. The prosecution has brought him. The law of self defence is common sense and you, the jury bring that in abundance. If someone is under attack they are entitled to defend themselves, so long as they use no more than reasonable force.
In interview Tipping says his mum was shouting to stop. He could hear what was going on. He says he tried ramming his dad against the bathroom - he knew what he was doing, Mr McLachlan says.Tipping says he is a lot cleverer than his dad. He also says his dad stabbed him and he acted out of self defence or loss of control.
