A WOMAN who allegedly knifed her boyfriend to death after he “choked her unconscious during rape-like sex” told 999 “he’s f***ing dying” as he bled out.

Hayley Keating, 31, is charged with murdering partner Matthew Wormleighton who died following a single stab wound to the chest after an argument.

Keating told Bristol Crown Court how her partner, 41, liked to strangle her until she was unconscious during “rough sex” sessions.

She is charged with murdering Matthew in the early morning of May 14 last year with a knife from a kitchen drawer, she denies murder.

Following the stabbing, Keating, of Forts Orchard, Chilthorne Domer, Somerset, told the 999 call handler: “Oh my God.

“I’ve stabbed him and now he’s f***ing dying.”

She continued: “I have stabbed the c*** and now he’s dying.

“I just thrown a knife at him because I was angry and now he’s f-ing dying. Please get here now.”

The court heard a recording of the call handler trying to keep Keating calm and advises her to apply pressure to the wound in Matthew’s chest.

Keating uses a cloth to stem the blood flow, he is still breathing, SomersetLive reported.

But when medics arrived at the scene Matthew could not breathe, he later went into a cardiac arrest and died.

On Monday, the 31-year-old painted an up and down relationship with Matthew and said he was more sexually experienced than she was.

But she explained she went along with things he liked during intimacy.

She said: “Sometimes he would choke me out, I would pass out.

“Sometimes he would do it with his hands. Sometimes he would do it with a belt, quickly around my head in a loop.

“I would be on all four’s and he was behind me. I would pass out and it was scary coming back ’round.

“I didn’t really say anything, I just told him to be careful. I was OK with it, he liked it, he liked doing it.

“Being totally out didn’t do anything for me. I was happy to do things for him.”

Recalling their sex life, she told how she once woke to find he was being intimate with her, telling Matthew “it felt like rape”.

She told him this, she said, and afterwards he left her for a while.

Though Keating said there were times when she viewed Matthew as “lovely” as he cared for her as she went through a mental health crisis.

The case continues.
