"A pregnant mother-of-two died after being stabbed 19 times by her partner, a court has heard. Alana Odysseos, 32, who grew up in Suffolk and lived in Walthamstow, east London, died outside her flat in the early hours of 22 July 2024. Shaine March, 47, of Surrey Quays in south-east London, was charged with her murder and is on trial at the Old Bailey in London. He previously pleaded guilty to manslaughter on the basis of diminished responsibility but denied murder."
"Ms Odysseos' neighbours described how the 32-year-old was found in her dressing gown, bleeding from multiple wounds and shouting: "Shaine stabbed me, he stabbed me! Help! Help!" The Metropolitan Police and London Ambulance Service arrived within minutes of the 999 calls and Ms Odysseos died at 03:52. Mr March was reported to police shortly afterwards when he entered Creams Cafe in Walthamstow covered in blood, Ms Oakley added."
Alana Odysseos, 32, was found outside her Walthamstow flat in the early hours of 22 July 2024 after being stabbed 19 times and died at 03:52. Her partner, 47-year-old Shaine March, was charged with murder; he had earlier pleaded guilty to manslaughter on grounds of diminished responsibility but denied murder. Neighbours and members of the public made 999 calls after hearing her cries that March had stabbed her. March later entered a café covered in blood and made admissions to police, including "I did it, I killed her Alana Odysseos". Odysseos had recently discovered she was pregnant and had confided fears about the relationship.
