Killer 'got a buzz from violence'

A woman was jailed for life yesterday for murdering a 75-year-old widow. Pat Morgan let Danielle Yablokovsky, 24, into her home in Bridgend, Mid Glamorgan, last December to use the telephone, but was stabbed 13 times with two knives and a knife sharpener.

Yablokovsky had already been the subject of a court order after killing her stepfather whom she claimed had sexually abused her, and was released from prison for attempted robbery five months before she killed Mrs Morgan. Mr Justice Alliott called her 'a hideously dangerous woman' and a psychiatrist told the court she 'got a buzz' from violence.
