A WOMAN has been found guilty of stabbing a man in his own home in Clacton.

Kelly Gentry went to the victim’s home in Wellesley Road on Friday, June 23.

During the evening Gentry became aggressive, demanding money and threatening the victim with a knife.

She stabbed the victim, a man in his 60s, in his stomach, shoulder and chest before cutting him across his throat.

The victim passed out but came to at around 5.30am when he alerted a neighbour who called the emergency services.

Gentry, 47, of no fixed address, was arrested in Harlow on July 1 and was charged with attempted murder which she denied.

After a six-day trial at Chelmsford Crown Court, she was found not guilty of attempted murder but guilty of GBH today.

She is due to be sentenced in February.
