Jilted lover faces 20 years for Avril’s murder

The jilted lover of Avril Flanagan was last night facing 20 years behind bars after being convicted of her murder.

A jury found Alan Daulby guilty of stabbing the Irish bar worker to death 47 times at his flat on Spain’s Costa Blanca after she begged him to stop stalking her.

Avril, from Swords, Co Dublin, was due to fly back to Ireland the day of her death with her mother Barbara to celebrate her 21st birthday.
