An alleged killer said he hid for days after stabbing a dad-of-two through the heart after he was made the subject of death threats online.
Adam Fletcher told a jury part of the reason why he didn’t hand himself into police after stabbing Paul Stenson was because he thought people would try to target him even if he was held in prison.
Fletcher allegedly murdered Mr Stenson on Princess Drive in December - only hours after the two met at a party there. After an argument between the two turned into a scuffle and they were asked to go outside, Fletcher is said to have grabbed a kitchen knife from inside the home before hiding it behind his back, pulling Mr Stenson towards him and plunging it into his side.
