A man who stabbed a dad-of-two in the heart outside a house party has been convicted of his murder.
Adam Fletcher said he was acting in self defence when he killed Paul Stenson outside a house party last December but a jury at Liverpool Crown Court found him guilty of murder this afternoon.
Nathan Finnegan, Fletcher’s best friend, and Demi Walsh, the mum of his child, were found guilty of assisting an offender after helping the 28 year old evade justice for days after the stabbing. Jurors could not reach a verdict on the same charge against co-defendant Susie Lee but they cleared her of a charge of attempted witness intimidation.
