A 'manipulative and jealous' woman who stabbed her ex-partner in the heart on Christmas Day after finding his Tinder profile has been found guilty of his murder.
Kirsty Carless, 33, plunged a knife into 31-year-old Louis Price's heart in the early hours of December 25, 2024, in an attack 'motivated by anger and jealousy and fuelled by cocaine and alcohol'.
She had been drinking double vodka and cokes with a male friend at the pub before going back to his home to have sex multiple times, Stafford Crown Court heard.
At around 1.30am on Christmas Day, a friend sent her a screenshot of Mr Price's Tinder profile. In a furious rage Carless armed herself with a kitchen knife and ordered a taxi to his parents' house to confront him.
Harrowing CCTV footage shows Carless storming up towards the house and 'stalking' Mr Price around the garden while menacingly waving the knife towards his face.
