A brutal real-life murder inspired by the fictional TV show Dexter has sparked outrage online, but not in the way the killer may have expected. After a British forensics student pleaded guilty to murder after building a 'kill room' inspired by the hit TV series, fans condemned him as a fake fan who completely missed the point of the show.
According to a report from West Midlands Police, 20-year-old forensic science student Benjamin Day admitted to the murder of 24-year-old Maria Saceanu at Wolverhampton Crown Court. Day had lured Saceanu to a rented Airbnb room on Bancroft Road in Tividale, Sandwell, which he had meticulously lined with plastic sheeting attached to the walls and floor using a staple gun.
