The parents of the boys taught by a former headteacher found murdered alongside his wife, have spoken of their shock at the deaths. The couple, named locally as Barry Dighton and wife Elizabeth, were stabbed to death inside their maisonette in Campden Road, South Croydon, on Wednesday. Their 34-year-old son, named by neighbours as Danny, was arrested at the scene and taken to a south London police station. Post-mortem examinations are being carried out at a Croydon mortuary. Mr Dighton retired as headteacher of Elmhurst School, an independent boys' school in Croydon, about three years ago.
