‘Honey trap’ murder: Woman jailed for 16 years

A woman who set a “honey trap” for a professional gambler who was kicked to death for his winnings has been jailed for 16 years.

 

Leonie Granger from Gillingham, Kent, was sentenced at the Old Bailey.

The court heard Mr Hassan believed he was in a genuine relationship with Leonie-Marie Granger

The 25-year-old care assistant targeted Mehmet Hassan, 56, in March last year after meeting him in a Mayfaircasino.

 

She was found guilty of manslaughter, her partner Kyrron Jackson, 28, and his friend Nicholas Chandler, 29, were found guilty of murder.

 

Granger, under the name of Rachel, had been wined and dined by Mr Hassan, who boasted to friends he was not paying her to be with him, the court heard earlier.

 

On the night Mr Hassan was killed, he had taken Granger to the upmarket sushi restaurant Nobu before giving her £1,000 to gamble with at the nearby Palm Beach Casino.
