A controlling boy friend has been found guilty of murdering his ex-girlfriend in a 'sustained and brutal' attack moments after she dumped him.

Daily Mail reported that Jordan Taylor, 22, exacted 'terrible revenge' on Laura Davies, 21, after she told him she was tired of their relationship and she wanted to break up.

Taylor was overcome with 'anger and jealousy' after Miss Davies ended their relationship and stabbed her repeatedly in a frenzied attack as he chased her through the sanctuary.

The attack was so forceful that the six-inch kitchen knife he used was bent to a 45-degree angle.

It was heard she ended the relationship because she had grown tired of his controlling behaviour.

Miss Davies' family said she had been unhappy after he had started telling her what to wear, stopped her from going out and had taken control of her bank account.

Giving evidence, her mother Dyanne Lambert said he would not allow her to wear short-sleeved or low-cut tops and they would often argue.

The attack began in the flat then continued outside as Miss Davies fled in her pyjamas.

CCTV footage showed Miss Davies' head falling backwards and forwards as she tried to fight off Taylor during the attack.

She was stabbed 18 times in the face, six times on her right arm, 18 times on her left arm, 15 times on her torso, six times on her right leg, eight times on her left leg, eight times on her back and three at the back of her head.

The court head that 'Jordan Taylor was motivated by anger, jealously or a combination of those..

'He was motivated by the fact that Laura no longer wanted to have a relationship and he attacked her with a knife.'

Taylor will be sentenced today.
