A woman who shared a prison cell with Hannah Louise Glover testified in the WA Supreme Court that Glover confessed to the stabbing. The alleged victim was Glover's ex-girlfriend, Tara Marie Morrison.
The attack occurred at their Busselton home in April 2024. The cellmate said Glover described how James Sorgiovanni, her partner, held Morrison's hand behind her back while Glover grabbed her by the hair and stabbed her in the neck.
Glover used four knives during the attack and dragged Morrison throughout the house. Police found Morrison's body in her daughter's wardrobe with about 40 wounds, along with grazes and bruising.
Glover, 30, and Sorgiovanni, 29, have both pleaded not guilty to murder. Glover has suggested in police recordings that Sorgiovanni forced her into the killing.
