LIFE SENTANCE Abusive Boyfriend Who Stabbed Rebekah 27 Times Faces Life in Jail

A violent man knifed his girlfriend 27 times after breaking into her Liverpool flat. Michael Ormandy, 34, has been found guilty of murder at Liverpool Crown Court.

Brutal Attack in Huyton

Ormandy, a drug dealer and ex-cage fighter from Litherland, launched the savage attack last April. He was even wearing a bulletproof vest when he struck 32-year-old Rebekah Campbell.
 

History of Abuse and Threats

Rebekah died in hospital hours later despite police efforts. The court heard this wasn’t a one-off — Ormandy had a history of domestic violence. Just days earlier, he punched Rebekah during a night out, leaving her with a black eye.

After the stabbing, Ormandy called the police, threatening to “blow everyone up” with a fake suicide vest.

Self-Defence Claim Fails

Ormandy insisted he acted in self-defence. But the post-mortem revealed Rebekah suffered 18 stab wounds and nine slashes — many defensive injuries indicating a brutal assault, not a fight back.

He is due to be sentenced on Thursday, 16 October.
