Migrant From Sudan Stabs To Death A Female Migrant Hotel Worker For The Hell Of It, Danced Afterward
An asylum seeker from Sudan accused of murdering a Walsall hotel worker on a railway platform was seen on CCTV following her to the station late at night, a court has heard.
Deng Majek, who claims to be 19 and denies murder, also danced and laughed after murdering 27-year-old Rhiannon Whyte in a "vicious and frenzied attack", Wolverhampton Crown Court was told.
Prosecutors allege he stabbed her 23 times with a screwdriver at Bescot Stadium railway station on 20 October 2024. She died three days later.
Ms Heeley told the court Ms Whyte's blood was found on the defendant's clothes, while her DNA was discovered under his fingernails.
She said Mr Majek was seen on CCTV at the Park Inn Hotel in Walsall, laughing shortly after killing her.
The defendant had been living at the hotel, which houses asylum seekers, while Ms Whyte had worked there for about three months.
