Young mother, 21, 'stabbed her boyfriend for going out and not ringing in every two hours then casually lit up a cigarette as he lay on the floor fighting for life'

A 'sinister' young mother stabbed and battered her boyfriend because he failed to call her every two hours on a night out, leaving him so badly injured paramedics believed he was dead, a court heard yesterday. Rhiann Burnie, 21, punched bricklayer Shane McMullen, 23, then knifed him in the shoulder before lighting up a cigarette and mopping up blood as he lay on the floor clinging to life, the jury at Burnley Crown Court was told. The prosecution claim she flew into a rage about him going to an engagement party and leaving her at home with her two-year-old daughter. Despite the wound severing a major artery and causing significant blood loss, Mr McMullen survived but has suffered memory loss and has nightmares of being stabbed again.
