Skydiving instructor who killed mum-of-three girlfriend in 'heated row' jailed

A skydiving instructor who murdered his partner by strangling her during an altercation at her home has been jailed. Ashley Kemp, 55, confessed to killing mother-of-three Clair Armstrong and was handed a 19-year prison sentence.

The man, whose partner was also a skydiving instructor, admits he headbutted the 50-year-old woman and broke her nose during a violent exchange in her house in Elm Way in Messingham, Scunthorpe, on November 5, 2022, reports GrimsbyLive.

Mr Kemp, of Robinson Grove, Hibaldstow, was convicted by a jury at Grimsby Crown Court after a six-day trial, after he denied murdering Ms Armstrong who taught skydiving at the Drop Zone club in the area.
