Horrific final moments of Leeds woman strangled by two-timing boyfriend and found dead in a bath 52 days later

The horrific final moments of a "beautiful" Leeds woman strangled to death by her own two-timing and "controlling" boyfriend have come to light.

Kirstie Ellis' body was discovered naked and hidden under a blanket in her home in Stanhall Mews, Stanningley, in March 2022. It is thought she may have been dead for several weeks before the traumatic discovery and only now do we know how she died and the sick man responsible for cutting her life short at just 35 years old.

Tony Brooks had been dating Kirstie for several months. However, rather than cherish her, he killed her so he could get his hands on her money as he went to elaborate lengths to cover up his heinous crimes.
