SEE How Girlfriend Brutally Stabs Boyfriend to Death After He Called Her a Whore (Photos)

 

 Murderer: Sophia Butler

A woman has tragically and brutally stabbed her boyfriend to death during an argument in which he called her a whore and using other abusive words on her.

The court has been told the motive behind the murder of a man by his girlfriend. The woman who suffered domestic abuse at the hands of her boyfriend has admitted stabbing him to death.

 

According to court record, Sophie Butler, 20, was suffering ‘battered women’s syndrome’ when she plunged a knife into Norasab Hussain, 33 killing him. It was revealed that minutes earlier he had called her a whore and left a message on her mother’s phone saying that Butler should open a brothel.

 

Angered by such shameful and degrading insult, Butler went for revenge, and revenge she got. She stabbed the boyfriend to death. He called an ambulance for himself after being stabbed at 4am on May 30 last year. When they arrived, paramedics were advised not to go into the property until police arrived.

 

The Metro reports when police arrived, they knocked on the door at 8.30am but there was no answer. Butler was inside with Hussain’s body.

 

They eventually got access at 2pm on May 31 and found Hussain with a 4ins stab wound after his girlfriend leaned out of a window shouting ‘help, help, he is dead, I have killed him’.

 

Butler denied murder at Leicester Crown Court but during her trial she admitted manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.

 

Prosecutors accepted the plea after the court heard Mr Hussain had a ‘propensity to be violent towards women’.

Two psychiatrists have ruled Butler was suffering from ‘battered women’s syndrome’ after enduring repeated domestic abuse from her boyfriend.

 

The court heard she had told friends, family, her employer and medical staff that she was ‘subject to ongoing domestic violence at the hands of Mr Hussain’. Speaking after the hearing, Mr Hussain’s loved-ones said they are demanding answers about what happened in his flat that night.

 

The grieving family added: ‘Sophie Butler hasn’t given us the details of what happened that night and we want to know what happened to him.

 

‘Everyone has problems in relationships but no-one deserves to be killed.’

 

The Independent Police Complaints Commission is still carrying out its investigation into why Mr Hussain’s body was not found for 10 hours.

 

But Staffordshire Police have welcomed Butler’s guilty plea.

 

Detective Chief Inspector Dave Giles said: ‘The guilty plea to manslaughter is a positive outcome which fully takes account of Sophie Butler’s actions in that she unlawfully killed Norasab Hussain.’
