Jason Gaskell severed 21-year-old Laura Huteson's jugular vein and carotid artery with a knife while having sex at his home in Hull on 27 February.

Sheffield Crown Court heard the pair, who had only met earlier that day, had been drinking vodka and taking cocaine.

Gaskell, 24, of Mildane, Hull, pleaded guilty to a charge of manslaughter.

Jailing Gaskell, Judge Jeremy Richardson said: "In simple terms you unlawfully killed a woman with whom you were having sexual intercourse by stabbing her through the neck during bizarre and violent sadomasochistic sexual activity."

He said Gaskell had not intended to kill her, but the danger had been obvious.

"You took that risk knowingly and deliberately and you have paid a terrible price.

"The price paid, however, by Laura Huteson, was infinitely greater. She is dead."

We've asked South Yorkshire Police for more information.

Police are warning people of the devastating effects of uploading "spurious and malicious" posts to social media after a York man with learning disabilities was mistakenly labelled a sex offender.

North Yorkshire Police received a report of a man in some bushes using binoculars, - when officers checked out the report it was discovered the man, who has learning disabilities, was actually train spotting.

A member of the public took pictures of the man and posted them on social media calling the man a "sex offender".

Officers say it has caused extreme distress to the man and his family, and officers have now launched an investigation into malicious communication.
