Stephen Muncaster, 47, reportedly shot dead his wife Allison before
turning the gun on himself at the luxury £400,000 house Carroll built
for him before he squandered his fortune.
The shooter, who had remarried after splitting from ex-wife Kelly in
2003, killed his 48-year-old new partner before turning the gun on
himself in the front garden.

they were found dead outside their bungalow in Magdalen, Norfolk,
yesterday.
Mickey Carroll, who won almost £10m on the lottery in 2002, said family members told him about what had happened.
He revealed:
“They’ve got in touch with Kelly and she’s fine.
“It’s sad news, but I’ve not spoken to Kelly or him since 2005.
“No one knows why he did it except him.”
Carroll gave Stephen and his ex-wife Kelly £1million and paid
£200,000 to rebuild their home after they cared for him before his
£9.7million win.
Yesterday initial reports had incorrectly claimed Kelly had been one of the shooting victims.
Speaking from her home in King’s Lynn, Norfolk, yesterday, Kelly
Muncaster, 44, said: “It’s going to be no comment all the way from me.
“I’m speaking to you now, so I’m not dead.
“All I would say is have compassion for my children. Leave them and leave his family.”
It is understood Kelly had three children with Mr Muncaster, including son Callum, 23.
Michael Carroll’s sister Zoe Carroll who lives in King’s Lynn, Norfolk, declined to comment on the shooting.
The now penniless factory worker asked for financial help after he
wasted his jackpot but Kelly refused – creating a rift and leading to
threats of legal action from Carroll.
Stephen, who worked in a food processing plant before the win, kept
the prized four-bed in Magdalen, Norfolk, when he and Kelly divorced in
2003.
It is believed his ex-wife kept the rest of the fortune she was handed and continued to enjoy luxury holidays.
Stephen then moved his new wife into the Norfolk home
Tattooed Carroll three years ago admitted he was broke after blowing
his fortune on holidays, handouts to family and friends, cars, bling,
drugs and booze.
The dad-of-two paid £750,000 to his ex-wife, spent at least
£1.5MILLION on drink and drugs, £1.2MILLION on property, £500,000 on
cars, £500,000 on holidays, including
