Man charged with murder of British student nurse
Elizabeth Odunsi, a 23-year-old British student nurse, was tragically stabbed to death in her Houston apartment, just days before her graduation. Chester Lamar Grant, 40, her roommate, has been charged with murder following the incident. Houston police conducted a welfare check at the residence and discovered Odunsi's body along with Grant, who was critically injured. The incident occurred on April 26, and Grant was arrested shortly thereafter. An online crowdfunding appeal to cover the costs of repatriating Odunsi to the UK has raised over £65,000, reflecting her impact on friends and family.
