British Student Nurse Stabbed to Death in Houston Flat
A young British student nurse has been tragically killed in her Houston home. Elizabeth Tamilore Odunsi, 23, originally from London, was found dead with multiple stab wounds on the kitchen floor of her apartment on Friday, 2 May.
Police Forced Entry After Welfare Check

After treatment, Grant was arrested and charged with Elizabeth’s murder. He is now held at Harris County Jail with bail set at $500,000 (£375,000).
Investigation Ongoing
Authorities have not revealed a motive. The investigation is ongoing, and police are urging anyone with information to come forward immediately.
