The girlfriend of a man who was stabbed to death in their northside flat has told a court his killer fancied her and was trying to get rid of the competition.

Christopher Jackson's body was stuffed in a wardrobe after he was stabbed to death at his home on Prussia Street in September 2012.

His body was found two days later, wrapped in a plastic bag.

The prosecution says that he was stabbed in the chest after answering his door to two men on September 7th 2012.

His girlfriend Barbara Staunton says two Ballyfermot brothers, Anthony and Bernard Locke are responsible for his death.

She claims Bernard was attracted to her and yesterday admitted having sex with him shortly after Christopher was killed.

Today, the self-confessed heroin addict said she was terrified and denied having sex with him to Gardai because she thought she'd be considered a suspect.

Ms Staunton also denies knowing the body was in her wardrobe while her sister and baby slept in her bedroom.

Bernard has already pleaded guilty to his murder, while his younger brother Anthony denies the charge.
