Dating site murderer Miles Donnelly jailed for life

A man who murdered a single mother he met on a dating website has been jailed for life. Miles Donnelly admitted strangling Usha Patel, 44, at the home she shared with her five-year-old son in Cricklewood, north-west London in October 2015. The 35-year-old, from Paddington, then fled to a west London house where he attacked another woman when she refused his advances. At the Old Bailey he was told he would serve a minimum of 23 years. The court heard he and Ms Patel had met on the dating site seven months before she invited him back to her home on 7 October.
