© Kent PoliceMolly McLaren was killed in her car - her Tinder boyfriend is accused of her murder
A student who was seeking love on dating app Tinder was stabbed to death in her car, shortly after sending texts saying she was "looking over her shoulder" and reporting her fears to the police.
Molly McLaren, 23, sent a WhatsApp message to friends expressing fears for her safety after she broke up with Joshua Stimpson, 26, who she had met through the Tinder app.
The blood-soaked man was arrested in the parking lot at the Dockside retail outlet in Chatham, Kent, on June 29, 2017, jurors were told. McLaren was found dead in her nearby car, shortly after she sent a text to her friends which read: "[I] feel like I'm f****** looking over my shoulder all the time."
Stimpson, who dated McLaren for seven months, admits manslaughter but denies murder, arguing diminished responsibility. The pair had broken up two weeks before McLaren was killed in a stabbing frenzy with a kitchen knife.
