THIS is the shocking moment cops found a knife stashed inside a shoe belonging to a double killer after a baby shower rampage.
Anthony Bennison and Nicholas Papworth mowed down and stabbed Adam Fanelli, 39, and Patrick Howard, 27, after a petty row.

The evil pair also knifed Mason Jordan – leaving him seriously injured in the bloodbath.
Channel 4 show 24 Hours in Police Custody has now explored the moments leading up to and after the double killing in Houghton Regis, Bedfordshire.
In one clip, officers can be seen searching a bag one of Bennison’s accomplices brought in while the killer was in the cells.
One cop rifles through normal belongings – such as shower gel and toothpaste – before stumbling across something more sinister.
Hidden within a trainer, the officer then discovers a knife.
After telling his colleague, he can be heard saying: “We’re not going to accept any of his property because he’s put a knife hidden in his shoe.”
The two-part special reveals how officers untangled a web of “carnage” after the double killing in November 2022.
Police had originally been called to a report of a hit-and-run but were instead met by a “scene of utter devastation”.
The horror first unfolded inside The Crown pub where a baby shower was taking place but soon spilled out onto the streets.
After Mason and Patrick left, Bennison jumped in his car and drove around erratically until he caught up with the pair.
He then repeatedly rammed his vehicle at them – causing innocent victim Adam to venture outside and see what the noise was.
The dad-of-four, who had told his mum he would be “back in a minute”, found Patrick and Mason sheltering in an alley.
Bennison meanwhile had headed back to the pub to collect Papworth so they could drive in a murderous convoy to hunt out the pair.
Once they caught them, the raging killers ploughed into the three men before Bennison knifed Adam in the chest twice.
He then stabbed Mason eight times before plunging the blade into Patrick’s neck – instantly paralysing him.
As Mason attempted to help his stricken pal, Papworth drove directly at them.
Patrick, who was unable to move, was pulled underneath the car and dragged for a short distance.
Papworth and Bennison were convicted of 12 offences in total, including murder and attempted murder.
They were both jailed for life last August with a minimum of 34 years and 38 years respectively.
