ACCRINGTON MAN JAILED FOR LIFE FOR FATAL STABBING OF EX-PARTNER
Joseph Hindle, 46, has been convicted of murder after attacking Mark Fisher, 33, in his home in Accrington.
The court heard that Hindle arrived at Mr Fisher's address on Edleston Street shortly after 12:30 GMT on 19 January 2020, after being sent there by Louise Henwood, 34, who goaded Hindle into the attack.
Hindle stabbed Mr Fisher several times, with one of the blows fracturing a rib, and he died an hour later.
Hindle was found guilty of murder at Preston Crown Court and has been sentenced to serve at least 27 years in prison.
Lancashire Police confirmed his conviction and emphasized that Hindle's attack involved extreme violence far beyond what was necessary for a robbery, indicating the intention was to seriously harm Mr Fisher.
Hindle had denied the murder, but the court’s verdict concluded otherwise.
