Police made the grim discovery after responding to a tipoff from neighbors around 7 am on Friday. A post-mortem examination revealed that both adults had succumbed to stab wounds to the neck. Intriguingly, a 999 call had been made an hour prior to the discovery, but police were not dispatched at that point.
The Norfolk Constabulary has referred the case to the Independent Office of Police Conduct, having faced criticism for not responding to the initial emergency call. Yvette Cooper, the Shadow Home Secretary, suggests that this incident highlights a broader issue in the response to emergency calls.

The gravity of the situation is underscored by the fact that the police watchdog, the Independent Office of Police Conduct, is now involved in the investigation. Meanwhile, Shadow Home Secretary Yvette Cooper draws attention to this incident as indicative of a larger issue with emergency response systems.
