Yeates suffered 43 injuries in fight for life, court hears

JOANNA YEATES fought a desperate battle for life as she suffered 43 injuries at the hands of her neighbour, a court heard yesterday.

Yeates, aged 25, suffered a slow and painful death as she was strangled by “cold and calculated” killer Vincent Tabak.

Tabak kept his crime secret for more than six weeks before confessing to a prison chaplain, prosecutors claim.
