Former doctor Robert Xie has lost an appeal against his convictions for violently murdering five members of his family in their Sydney home.
Key points:
Three of his grounds of appeal involved DNA evidence found in his garage
Xie, who appeared via video from jail, put his head in his hands when the decision was handed down
After four trials, a jury found Xie guilty of bashing his newsagent brother-in-law Norman Lin, Mr Lin's wife Lily, their sons Henry, 12, and Terry 9, and Lily's sister Irene, to death while they slept in their beds at North Epping in 2009.
