A woman has been found guilty for a second time of killing her partner in a brutal knife attack - just less than a year after her original conviction was rescinded.
Olivia Labinjo-Halcrow served a jail term of 18 years after her on and off again boyfriend Gary Cunningham was found dead at a property in February 2019.
Labinjo-Halcrow was acquitted of the murder of Cunningham but was instead found guilty of manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility at the end of a trial held at Birmingham Crown Court in August 2019.
However, in July 2020, three judges revoked the conviction as they felt it was 'unsafe' during a Court of Appeal hearing in London, reports Birmingham Live.
