A woman discovered that her boyfriend had been fatally stabbed after one of his murderers led her to the crime scene.
Jordan Briscoe was lured to his death by his assailants under the premise of a drug deal last year.
He was attacked in Arnold Road, Tottenham, just after 10pm on March 5, and was pronounced dead shortly after being taken to hospital.
The 25-year-old’s girlfriend told police that a man wearing a ski mask came to her home afterwards to tell her Jordan had been involved in an altercation.
The man told her it “wasn’t looking good for him”, before asking if she found him attractive.
He then led her towards Arnold Road, where she came across the police cordon.
Four men have now been jailed for a total of 89 years for Jordan’s murder.

According to police, call records showed that the 37-year-old rang Jordan and sent him a message asking that he meet her in Arnold Road so she could buy some drugs from him.
In reality, she was not even in London, and knew that others would be there to meet Jordan. CCTV then showed Jordan leaving his house to make the deal.
Just before 10pm, doorbell footage recovered by officers showed a group surround and talk to Jordan for around 11 minutes, asking him about drugs, his name and age, and his religion.
They then move out of the camera’s view and carry out the fatal attack.
After an extensive police investigation, police identified four men who had carried out the stabbing.
They were - Karl Black, 43, of Cassiobury Road, Walthamstow; Jahoe Allen, 34, of Kings Road, Uxbridge; Ayyub Kigoz, 19, of Salop Road, Walthamstow; and Jabir Sitar, 21, of Clacton Road, Walthamstow.

All four were found guilty of Jordan’s murder on March 22 at the Old Bailey.
Kigozi was also found guilty of stealing Jordan’s mobile phone around the time of his death.
Allen was later identified as the masked man who had told Jordan’s girlfriend about the attack.
Claudette Briscoe, Jordan’s mother, said: “Our dearest Jordan was only 25 years old.
"He is not coming back and those sentenced are responsible for Jordan not being with his family and friends today.
"Our lives will never be the same due to the senseless actions of these men and woman."

Detective Chief Inspector Linda Bradley, who led the investigation, said: “These four men carried out a premeditated and violent attack after luring Jordan to the scene.
"They all gave evidence during their trial, but tried to blame each other. The jury saw through their lies.
"Our investigation showed that Black planned the attack with others and used Manen to lure Jordan from his home address."
All five of those involved in Jordan’s death were sentenced at the Old Bailey yesterday (April 30) as follows:
- Black – life imprisonment with a minimum term of 27.5 years
- Allen – life imprisonment with a minimum term of 25.5 years
- Kigozi – life imprisonment with a minimum term of 17 years for murder, plus two years for robbery, to run concurrently
- Sitar – life imprisonment with a minimum term of 19 years
- Manen – jailed for three years
