"She was angry and she was out to deal with the person who was the bane of her life."
"He had split seconds to do whatever he could to make sure that he was not stabbed and that he was not seriously injured."
"During the incident, he kept telling Ms Wang to calm down, to stop... but she did not calm down, and everything he did was acting in self-defence."
Joshua Michals, 26, denies murdering 31-year-old Zhe Wang, a fellow Goldsmiths student, after she was found with two stab wounds to her face in her Manor Park flat. Michals called 999 in March 2024 and claims he acted in self-defence after Wang attacked him with a knife. He told police he pressed his forearm to her neck to restrain her and did not intend to kill her. A post-mortem found stab wounds to the head and neck compression. Michals called his father, obtained a solicitor's details, phoned an ambulance, and disposed of Wang's phone.
