A Polish sex attacker was killed by a passerby who intervened to stop him molesting an 18-year-old girl in the street, a jury heard yesterday. Janusz Smoderek died of stab wounds soon after he drunkenly assaulted the teenager while on his way home from a lap-dancing club. Stephen Sleaford admits stepping in to save the young woman, but insists he was not responsible for Smoderek's death, and says it was in fact the Pole who was carrying a knife, not him. The prosecutor praised the actions of Sleaford, 38, in helping the unnamed girl after Smoderek grabbed her breasts while she was returning home from a night out in Boston, Lincolnshire in September 2011.
