'Kelly Louise Barnes, 32, and her partner Jodie Barnes, 31, killed Barry Reeve in a "brutal and callous" attack in his home, Norwich Crown Court heard.

They tortured the retired bus conductor, believing he had a secret stash of money before turning the volume on his television up to mask his screams, it was claimed.

They beat the 67-year-old and cut him with a knife at his home in Norwich in an attempt to make him disclose his PIN, the jury were told.

After the attack on February 9 last year the drug addict couple, both of both, Norwich, left the grandfather dying, prosecutors alleged.

They returned to his terraced house in the city's Corton Road, where Mr Reeve, who was known as Titch because of his small stature, is thought to have remained alive until at least the following morning.'
