Probation officers who worked on the case of a violent offender before he murdered three children and his pregnant girlfriend have told an inquest their workload was “overwhelming” when they were managing him.
Damien Bendall, 33, is serving a whole-life order for the murders of Terri Harris, 35, her daughter Lacey Bennett, 11, her son John Paul Bennett, 13, and Lacey’s friend Connie Gent, 11, after he attacked them with a claw hammer at their home in Killamarsh, Derbyshire.
