Amy Leanne Stringfellow Death

Amy-Leanne Stringfellow was killed by her partner Terence Papworth in lockdown on June 2020. Terence Papworth, 45, allegedly used a vodka bottle and an ornamental sword in the “sustained” attack on Amy-Leanne Stringfellow, 26.

Mr Papworth had been charged and released on bail a month before for the assault on his partner.

A post-mortem examination revealed 58 separate injuries, including a knife wound to Ms Stringfellow’s neck and fractures to her cheek, jaw, and eye sockets, according to Doncaster Coroner’s Court.

Amy, who deployed in Afghanistan, met Mr Papworth in October 2019 and got engaged two months later on New Year’s Eve, according to the court.

Ms Stringfellow’s mother, Jacqueline Fareham, claimed in a statement that Mr Papworth “at first appeared to be wonderful” and that she treated him “as one of the family.”

In November 2020, Mr Papworth died in Leeds Prison. The Prison Service did not reveal how he died.
