The family of a Canadian teenager who was stabbed to death in a quiet Essex cul-de-sac just days before she was due to fly home after a trip to England to see her British boyfriend she met online have vowed to get justice for their 'baby girl'.
Ashley Wadsworth, 19, was discovered following a 'disturbance' at an address in Chelmsford, Essex, at 4pm on Tuesday.  
She had flown to the UK to be with her boyfriend Jack Sepple, 23, on November 12 last year.
Ms Wadsworth was due to fly home to see her family in Vernon, British Columbia, on Thursday.
A 23-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder.
Ms Wadsworth's heartbroken big sister, Hailey, vowed to get justice for her sibling.
She wrote on Facebook: 'My poor baby sister we will get justice baby girl I love you so much I miss you everyday your big sissy loves you.'
