A controlling boyfriend murdered his  girlfriend by stamping on her head after she refused to give him her Facebook password, a court has heard. Kane Boyce is accused of murdering  Paula Newman in 'a violent rage' at the home they shared in Croydon, south London, after allegedly becoming convinced the 20-year-old was cheating on him. The 34-year-old denies murder, claiming the woman died after falling out of his BMW during a late-night drive. Today the Old Bailey heard how Miss Newman was heard by neighbours 'shrieking' as the defendant shouted at her to hand over her social media passwords on November 13, 2013.
