Man found guilty of stabbing ex-girlfriend to death in home

A man who climbed through his ex-girlfriend’s bedroom window before stabbing her to death has been convicted of murder.

Hussain Haron, 24, of London Road, Mitcham, was found guilty of the murder of Felecia Cadore following a six-day trial at Snaresbrook Crown Court yesterday.

Police were called to a report of an altercation at an address in Grenaby Avenue, Croydon on June 9, 2023.

Felecia, aged 29, was found with stab wounds and was taken to hospital in a critical condition. 

She died from her injuries on June 14, 2023.

The court heard that Haron climbed through the window of the address in the search of Felecia. 

After an altercation between the two, Haron grabbed a knife and violently stabbed her.

He was arrested later that afternoon and was found in possession of the knife he used to attack Felecia. 

Despite claiming he was acting in self-defence, Haron was found guilty of murder by the jury. 

He is due to be sentenced at the same court tomorrow.

Detective Chief Inspector Craig Magee, from the Met’s Specialist Crime unit, said: “Today, justice has been served following the conviction of Hussain Haron for the murder of Felecia Cadore in June 2023.

“It is an example of the devastating impact violence against women and girls can have.

“It has been 18 months since Felecia was killed. I hope that today’s verdict provides her family with some comfort and allows them to begin to process the effect this brutal crime has had.”
