Summary
Anthony Hillier walked away from a 26-year sentence with 24 years after a chilling murder plot unraveled — the judge called it one of the most meticulously planned he’d ever seen. Raymond Groves was stabbed repeatedly at a shared home by his ex-girlfriend Letisha Goodwin and her mother Helen Shakespeare, who claimed Groves tried to rape her. But CCTV, a bloody footprint matching Hillier’s trainers, and damning texts — including one from Hillier saying, “I f told you I would get rid of him” — exposed their lie. Goodwin, with severe mental health issues, is now in a secure facility, while Shakespeare got five years for manslaughter. The case was hailed as exemplary justice — and Hillier’s sentence was reduced for time already served.
