NextImg:Jealous boyfriend beat girlfriend to death, then dropped sofa on her body, falling asleep on it

A jealous boyfriend has been convicted of the “painful and brutal” murder of his girlfriend, beating her and stomping on her head at least 80 times — then dropping a sofa on her body and falling asleep on it.

Leroy Brahm III, 33, grew explosive with jealousy after his 21-year-old girlfriend, Annabel Rose Meenan, had a sexual relationship with another man — even though Brahm had encouraged it, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.

“He was done with Annabel choosing another man instead of himself,” prosecutor Kate Wright told his trial.

Brahm “savagely beat the victim on several occasions leading up to the murder,” the Chester County District Attorney’s office said — with “many of his violent attacks” caught on security cameras at the East Vincent Township mobile home they shared.

Several clips were played in court, including one where he punched his helpless girlfriend 21 times in the head and body and choked her, The Daily Local said.

Then in December 2021 he “unfathomably, brutally, and systematically beat his girlfriend to death during the course of a night,” DA Christopher de ​Barrena-Sarobe said.

That was also caught on his home cameras, showing Brahm punching Meenan at least 85 times and stomping on her head at least 80 times.

It ended with him picking up the living room sofa, dropping it onto her prone body — and then falling asleep on it.

“She died a painful and brutal death,” Wright told the court, with the savage beating causing a fatal cardiac arrest.

When asked by investigators to explain the bruises on Meenan’s near-naked body, Brahm said, “It’s just a sexual kink. We like rough sex.”

Brahm’s lawyer, Scott ​McIntosh, argued that his client “saw red” during a night of drinking and snapped in a moment of provocation, the Inquirer reported.

Brahm III was convicted Friday of first-degree murder as well as multiple counts of aggravated assault, simple assault and recklessly endangering another person.

“The jury rightfully recognized that [Brahm] was guilty of all charges,” the DA said.

Brahm will be sentenced later, with the first-degree murder conviction carrying a mandatory sentence of life in prison without parole.
