Sabina Nessa only took a shortcut through the park where her murderer attacked and killed her because she was running late.
The 28-year-old teacher told pals she normally avoided walking through Cator Park in South East London at night but cut through because she was rushing to meet a friend at Depot bar on September 17.
Koci Selamaj, 36, had lain in wait at the park for 25 minutes with his hood up, before he struck Sabina with an emergency traffic triangle and dragged her into the bushes.
