Jump to contentAllNewsSportCultureLifestyleCourt artist sketch of Harper Dennis appearing at Leicester Crown Court (PA)Student Harper Dennis, 19, has been found guilty of manslaughter after stabbing his former friend Khaleed Oladipo to death near De Montfort University in Leicester. The 20-year-old victim was stabbed five times in the chest on 3 February following a fallout over a perceived £6,000 debt and a fake Rolex watch. Dennis claimed he acted in self-defence after being given a counterfeit watch to sell, but prosecutors argued he launched the attack out of grievance over the money. Following a two-week trial at Leicester Crown Court, Dennis was acquitted of murder but convicted of manslaughter, weapon possession, and failing to provide his phone PIN. Police described the fatal attack as a completely disproportionate response to a minor dispute, with Dennis scheduled to be sentenced later on Tuesday.
