Natalie Bennett was convicted of killing her partner Kasey Anderson following a trial last month.
A woman who was yesterday jailed for brutally murdering her young boyfriend gave an astonishing response to her guilty verdict. Natalie Bennett was convicted of killing her partner Kasey Anderson in October and was sentenced yesterday following a trial at Liverpool Crown Court.
During sentencing Denis Watson KC said he believed Bennett had been continually abusive towards Mr Anderson, leaving him with black eyes. Then, how on the fateful day in question, they had an argument before she turned violent and he tried to fight back. "His family saw him with injuries and black eyes on many occasions. His family were convinced, correctly in my view, that you were responsible. I am sure that you were violent to him on a regular basis. Your influence over him was substantial. He was besotted with you. He always forgave you. You and he had a prolonged argument. The precise details will only be known to him and you.

Suffering from multiple wounds, Mr Anderson was rushed to Aintree Hospital where he underwent surgery but died 20 days later. Mr Pratt said that Ring doorbell footage recovered from the neighbour's house showed Bennett "holding a knife to the head of the distraught and injured Mr Anderson" with her right hand and "using it either to strike Kasey Anderson in the head or at the very least hold it close to his head".
