Jordan McSweeney was handed a minimum prison term of 38 years for murdering the law graduate.
A sexual predator who stalked and murdered Zara Aleena is set to challenge his sentence at the Court of Appeal.
The attack on Cranbrook Road in Ilford lasted nine minutes and resulted in 46 separate injuries to the law graduate. The Old Bailey heard that McSweeney failed to attend any meetings with probation workers after his release on 17 June last year, and his licence had been revoked. He described McSweeney as a "career criminal" who had been in and out of jail since the age of 16 and said that he "should have been considered a high-risk-of-serious-harm offender".
