22nd January 2008,
police and paramedics sped to Pantyffynnon Road
following 999 calls made by Maxine William's mother and
15-year-old brother.
Julie Williams said of her partner: "He's unconscious.
He's bleeding to death. I'm freaking out here. He's
gasping for breath. It's thick, thick blood here — it's
like a swimming pool."
In the backgroubnd was the
voice of Maxine Williams saying "The c**t. I’ve done it.
I have killed him mam. I’m going to eat him mam, for us.
I’m going to kill him and eat him up."
The paramedics battled to save Bernard Evans after
finding him on the kitchen floor, but he was pronounced
dead at the scene.
He had stab wounds to his
arm and chest, an artery had been cut.
Maxine Williams became very agitated when the police
arrived and a Taser stungun had to be used in the course
of her arrest. On the way to Carmarthen Police Station,
she told officers: "I'm glad I stabbed him. I hope he
dies."
Later, after being told Mr Evans had died, she said:
"I'm glad he's dead. He's dead because I killed him — he
deserved it."
October 2008,

explanations but had declined to enter the witness box.
