A homeless man has confessed to murdering a woman with a mallet just days after she invited him over to stay.
Apapale Adoum, 39, pleaded guilty at the Old Bailey to murdering Victoria Adams, 37, who was found dead at her flat in Hammersmith, west London, in February.
Prosecutors previously heard Ms Adams suffered ‘at least ten separate injuries’ to her head after being struck with the weapon.
The court previously heard Ms Adams had recently written a letter to him, asking him to leave.
Some nearby residents recalled hearing screams in the middle of the night a few days before her body was found.
