Bizarre: Daughters love dad who killed their mom

Two sisters aged 28 and 25 are grieving for their father who pleaded guilty of murder and will spend 11 years behind bars.

According to a 'Daily Mail' report, the incident took place in 2008. The eldest of girls described her parents as a "couple who couldn't be apart but shouldn't have been together. They had an intense and destructive relationship that brought out the worst in each other."

They call their dad 'gentle' and still in love with their mom.

Recalling those days, the girls say their parents were having trouble since they moved to Bristol. But when they were not fighting there was so much of love between them. However, in 2005 they separated. After a year their dad returned and their dad paid major bills and did their mother's wahshing and ironing, too. But soon their mom started dating someone else.

That year when the girls returned home after Christmas party police greeted them at home and broke the news to them. Their mom was in coma. Couple of days later, the girls decided to take her off life support.

"I separate the person who killed my mom from the person who is my dad," one of them says. "The bond between Dad, Sara and me is stronger than ever."
