Chrissie Azzopardi killing was 'swift and brutal' TRIGGER WARNING
October 7th

A transgender woman whose decomposed body was found at her flat two months after she was killed died in a "brutal" attack, the Old Bailey has heard.

Chrissie Azzopardi, 22, was stabbed to death at her home in Crescent Way, north London, in April last year, but her body was not discovered until June. Prosecuting, Mark Heywood QC said her killer had been "swift and brutal" and left her while she lay "dead or dying".

The 22-year-old, who had been due to undergo gender surgery in late 2012, was discovered lying on her bed.

She had been stabbed in the chest, pushed down and then stabbed again with force which had pierced her heart, the court heard.

Mr Heywood said the killing had been "swift and brutal" and while it was "likely she fought back, [she] was very quickly overwhelmed".
