Molly McLaren, 23, died in a "frenzied" attack at the Dockside shopping centre in Chatham, Kent, on 29 June. Joshua Stimpson, 26, had admitted manslaughter but denied murder before his trial at Maidstone Crown Court. Sentencing him to a serve a minimum of 26 years in prison, Judge Adele Williams said: "This was a cruel, calculated and cowardly act." The judge told Stimpson, of Wouldham High Street in Rochester, he may never be released for his "wickedness". She added: "You slit her throat while repeatedly stabbing her. "You were determined to punish her for finishing with you. You were seeking revenge."
Joshua Stimpson and Molly Mclaren were together for 7 months before he murdered her, along with this he told the judge that he took his parents splitting up very harshly, however, psychiatrist Dr. Philip Joseph said he shows no sign of a personality disorder but does have narcissistic traits.In my opinion, stabbing someone 75 is an excessive amount, in addition, the fact it was his recent ex-makes it even crazier to happen
A lot of information to do with the case overall and you have included your opinion. To improve you could have compared it to another case and see if there is a pattern with the relationship stabbings.
