Jealous boyfriend kills love rival with baseball bat after texting 'on my way babe'

A jealous boyfriend killed his love rival in cold blood with a baseball bat after messaging his girlfriend "on my way babe, 10 mins", a court heard.

Daniel Griffiths, 43, repeatedly beat Andrew Guy, 54, at his home after he sent the casual text in October last year, causing an "agonising and slow death".

Andrew had gone to the property, near Crewe, Cheshire, to drop off some drugs at around 7 pm when Griffiths violently assaulted him. Police believe Griffiths wrongly thought Andrew was interested in his partner.
