Builder Peter Norgrove Sentenced to Life for Brutal Murder of Customer

Norgrove killed Sharon Gordon in a 'savage' hammer attack following disputes over delays in a home extension project.

Peter Norgrove, a 43-year-old builder, has been sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 15 years for the murder of 58-year-old Sharon Gordon.
Gordon had hired Norgrove to build an extension to her home, a project that was over a year behind schedule. The court heard that Norgrove killed Gordon in a 'brutal and savage' hammer attack following her criticism of his delays and workmanship.
Norgrove was caught on doorbell and security camera footage entering Gordon's home wearing rubber gloves and leaving with red marks on his trousers. Bloodstained items and a hammer were later found at locations linked to Norgrove.
After the murder, Norgrove picked up a child from school and led a service at the Jehovah's Witnesses Kingdom Hall they both attended.
The victim's daughter, Rhian Brown, expressed her torment at the thought of her mother's final moments, stating that 'nothing will ever restore or compensate for what we have lost.'
