Chilling moment smiling killer tells cops ‘I know what happened’ as he returns to scene of the crime after murder
THIS is the chilling moment a killer smiles as he tells cops “I know what happened” after he returned to the scene of the crime.
Marek Hecko, 26, was found guilty of murdering his ex girlfriend’s new partner while he slept.
He was sentenced to life today following the brutal stabbing of Adrian Ellingford, 44, at an address in Nelson Grove, Chelmsford, last summer.
The jury heard the fatal attack was so vicious the knife handle broke off in Hecko’s hand.
A bone in Adrian’s chest was also cut by the blade.
Police body cam footage shown at Chelmsford Crown Court revealed the moment Hecko had a brief encounter with an officer.
He claimed he returned to the property after he saw on the news what had happened.
A drunk Hecko is still holding a bottle of alcohol as he told the officer: “I’m looking for her [his ex-girlfriend], I can help her.”
It’s understood the killer was still obsessed with his ex and constantly turned up at her work and home uninvited.
In the sick footage he added: “I know what happened. I know the people there involved.
“I’m not going to tell you my name, I don’t give a f***.
“I know what happened and you need me to figure out what happened.
“If you don’t have me, you won’t know what happened.
“I just know that some guy came here and f***** up some guy.
“I don’t know what happened. He just got f***** up.
“You’re going to think it’s me but it’s not me as there’s no proof. I know what happened.
“This city is mine. This city is f******* mine.”
Shortly after, Hecko became confrontational.
He was then arrested a put in the back of a police van.
When he was in custody, cops identified him as the main suspect and a few days later charged him.
Adrian, who was a dad-of-two, was stabbed twice at his home on July 25 last year.
He later died in hospital.
Passing sentence today, Judge Morgan said: “The evidence to the jury demonstrate very clearly that you had not moved on and you were an individual who was finding it difficult to emotionally detangle yourself from her and that has resulted in the death of an entirely innocent man.”
