Cat killer who went on to murder man jailed for at least 24 years

A murderer who led a man to his death after livestreamed the killing of a cat months before was jailed for a minimum of 24 years.
Scarlet Blake, 26, hit Jorge Martin Carreno over the head before pushing him into the River Cherwell in Oxford in July 2021.
Blake had a "fixation with violence" and found Jorge Martin Carreno, 30, while searching the streets of Oxford looking for someone to kill in the early hours of 25 July 2021.
The body of the BMW factory worker, a Spanish national who was walking home alone after a night out with colleagues, was found in the River Cherwell at Parson's Pleasure around 24 hours later.
Months earlier, Blake had live-streamed the dissection of a family pet after watching a Netflix documentary in which a man kills kittens before filming a murder.
Blake admitted charges of criminal damage and animal cruelty. She denied murder but was convicted after a trial at Oxford Crown Court.
The judge, Mr Justice Chamberlain, described the killer, who is transgender, as having an "obsession with harm and death" as he sentenced her to a minimum term of 24 years in prison.
He told Blake: "The decision to kill was entirely yours. You were completely indifferent to this suffering."
