A MUM died after being knifed in the heart then left for dead in a train station car park, an inquest heard.
Stephanie Marie, 19, was declared dead at the scene at Crawley station in West Sussex.
The dad of her child, Jason Pascal Flore, 26, has been charged with murder following the August 18 horror.
An inquest heard how Stephanie died from stab wounds to the heart and aorta.
Sussex Police were called to the station at around 7.10am following reports of an altercation between a man and a woman.
The court was told Stephanie was discovered unconscious with stab wounds.
A full inquest has been adjourned until a later date pending criminal proceedings.
Flore appeared at Lewes Crown Court last month where he spoke only to confirm his name, date of birth and address.
A trial is expected to take place at the same court in February next year.
Stephanie’s devastated family previously paid tribute to the mum.
They said: “Stephanie was a much-loved daughter, sister and mother.
“We are devastated that her young life has been ended in this way. She had her whole life ahead of her.
“At school she excelled at sport and loved basketball, football and gymnastics.
“We will miss her so much. Life will never be the same.”
