Elizabeth Hart-Browne, 27-year-old mother of two who stabbed her abusive boyfriend three times in the neck and told police ‘I’ve killed the man I love’ weeps as she is CLEARED of murder

Our thanks to Mike P for this. Extracts:

Jeweller Elizabeth Hart-Browne, 27, broke down in tears at the Old Bailey today as she was cleared of murdering her violent boyfriend Stephen Rayner.

The mother-of-two stabbed Stephen Rayner, 25, three times with a kitchen knife after drinking at a party on the night of 17 September last year…

Jurors heard she had knifed Mr Rayner twice before [my emphasis] – but acquitted Ms Hart-Browne of murder at the Old Bailey today after deliberating for 14 hours and 55 minutes.

She claimed she had picked up the blade in the course of a violent struggle when they were entwined like a ‘twisted pretzel’ and ‘forgot’ she was holding it when the blows were struck.

  1. Pick any and all of the following that apply:

    1) I didn’t do it.
    2) It wasn’t me.
    3) He made me do it.
    4) I couldn’t help it.
    5) I didn’t mean it.
    6) I’m very sorry and I won’t do it again, I promise.
    7) Please don’t look at me like that, I’m very upset.
    8) Shoulder heaving sobs and tears.

  2. …..”She told an officer she had stabbed him, adding: ‘I didn’t mean to do it, I’m so sorry….”

    One could be forgiven for thinking she had already begun manipulating the jury by beginning her defence early, and then;
    “….when she was arrested for murder she said:
    ‘I have just killed the man I love.’…. ” (Sob)

    Ah – poor little kitten, – “Killed The Man she LOVES” – how awful for her.

    She’s suffered enough already, better let her go eh?
