Summary

A tragic love story turned deadly: Liam Collier, a vulnerable man who invited Kayleigh Smart over after online flirtations, was fatally stabbed in his flat. Smart, battling severe mental illness and having stopped her meds, later admitted to the attack — initially blaming an ex-boyfriend. During the assault, Liam desperately called 999, screaming he was being stabbed. The murder weapon vanished, and Smart claimed she was set up, even alleging hidden cameras. Despite her bizarre claims, experts confirmed her reality was shattered. The court accepted her manslaughter plea, acknowledging both the horrific violence and the profound impact of her deteriorating mental health on this devastating outcome.
