Man stabbed his grandma to death in Cornwalls

A man has been sent to prison for forcefully entering his grandmother’s house and fatally stabbing her while she was sleeping in bed.

Alison Stevenson, who is 62 years old, always tried to help Cameron Dancey-Stevenson with his challenges and take care of him. This was stated in a trial.

But the 27-year-old killed his own grandparent at her house in Cornwall in May 2021 in a very violent way.

In simpler terms, the court learned that Alison still had feelings of love for her grandson, even though he had hurt her before and was given a legal order to stay away from her.

Even though Dancey-Stevenson tried her best to help him, she still had a strong anger about the command and ended up doing a deadly and chaotic knife attack.

His family says they will never forgive him for the attack. He was found guilty at Exeter Crown Court on Tuesday. Today, he was sentenced to life in prison with a minimum of 18 years.

On May 25, 2021, he entered Ms Stevenson’s house in Helston by breaking a window. He took a knife from the kitchen and began stabbing her in the neck while she slept in bed.

After killing her, Dancey-Stevenson spent a long time at the house trying to remove any evidence. Later, he falsely accused someone else of committing the murder.

In court, Marina Stevenson, the victim’s daughter, said her mother was kind and loving. She also stated that her mother did everything possible to help her grandson.

Speaking on behalf of the family, she told Dancey-Stevenson: ‘That word, grandson, means someone who is part of our family, related by blood. ‘ You are not her grandson anymore – you are the person who killed her.

Marina said that the family had a hard time accepting that they lost a very loving woman to a very cruel act.

She said, “It was even more devastating because it was you, Cameron, her beloved grandson. ”

‘She did everything she could to assist you. ‘ She was always scared of you because she was afraid of what you would do when you didn’t get what you wanted.

Actually, you felt like your whole family was not on your side – you never noticed everything they did for you. You only thought about yourself and what you would gain from it.

Marina explained that her mother was very frightened in her final moments as she tried to protect herself from her grandson. She believes her mother died because of his actions.

Her sister, who is the mother of the person being accused, has been unable to sleep since the attack and has been constantly seeing disturbing images in her mind.

Marina said that she does not understand how the child she gave birth to, who was always loved and cared for, could do such a terrible thing.

I want you to receive the help you need for your mental health. I believe no one can provide more help than Alison did.

You had the same opportunities in life as everyone else, but you always wanted more from your mother and grandmother.

As a family, we will never forget what you did, and we cannot find it in our hearts to forgive you. You are a self-centered person who always knew what you were doing.

Marina said that her mom, Alison, was a daughter, sister, mother, aunt, niece, cousin, and grandmother. She really enjoyed cooking, taking care of her garden, and above all, spending time with her family.

Alison would always go out of her way to help anyone and was very willing to assist. Everyone who knew her speaks highly of her.

Judge Simon Carr said that Alison is the type of person who goes out of her way to help others.

He said: ‘There was obvious proof that you were mad at her and held her responsible for your difficult situation. ‘ You believed she caused your problems, but that is not true at all. She did everything she could to assist and encourage you.

Even though Dancey-Stevenson had hurt her, the judge said that she never stopped caring and being concerned about him.

Sometimes, when you didn’t have a place to live, she would let you stay with her, but it didn’t happen very often. She understood that what she was doing was against the rules of the restraining order, but she couldn’t just watch and do nothing because she was a very kind person.

The judge told Dancey Stevenson that his grandmother is having a hard time dealing with his behavior. She had to tell him to stay away from her house for her own safety.

Dancey-Stevenson is a patient at Langdon Hospital in Dawlish. He was told that he would only be released on parole after serving the minimum term if he is no longer considered a threat to the public.

A man, who is 51 years old, confessed to killing his own parents by stabbing them. This happened earlier this year.
