British man stabbed ex girlfriend 50 times after she dumped him in 'brutal and barbaric murder'

A jilted British man was jailed for 19 years today for stabbing his ex girlfriend nearly 50 times after she dumped him. Judges called Alan Daulby's attack on the blonde bar worker ‘brutal and barbaric’ as they sentenced him to just one year short of the maximum jail term that prosecutors were demanding. A jury last month found the 27-year-old British expat guilty of the stabbing murder of Irish woman Avril Flanagan, 20, at his flat on Spain's Costa Blanca on May 29, 2009.

He was convicted of knifing her 47 times around the head, neck, chest, arms and legs before hiding her body in plastic sheeting under his sofa as part of a clinical clean-up of the murder scene and going on the run. Mr Daulby, 27, from Liverpool, Merseyside confessed to killing Miss Flanagan at the end of his trial but claimed he had confused her with an intruder after bingeing on drink and drugs and panicked when he woke up to find her dead.
