A couple plotted to stab a dog breeder in the stomach in a revenge attack after she sold them a puppy which died, a court has heard. Chelsea Rees fell asleep and missed the stabbing, but boyfriend Michael Kingston went without her and plunged a knife into their victim when she opened her front door.
Swansea Crown Court heard Rees had wanted to stab the dog breeder 13 times - one for each puppy in the litter - and wanted her to suffer and feel pain. The couple have been locked up for five years each.
