A serial-killer obsessed woman has been jailed for life after murdering her on-off boyfriend.
Shaye Groves, 27, has been jailed for life and will serve at least 23 years in prison after slitting Frankie Fitzgerald's throat and stabbing him 17 times in the chest in July last year. She was sentenced at Winchester Crown Court on Wednesday (February 22) after being convicted by a jury last week.
The five-week trial heard that Groves tried to portray herself as his victim and that she used tips from true crime documentaries to plan her alibi. The jury were told the pair shared a mutual interest in BDSM and a camera was set up in the defendant’s bedroom at her home in Havant, Hampshire, to record them having sex.
