Mr Torrans, 31, of Modbury Heights, was stabbed multiple times on Wednesday evening.

Mr Goodfellow was arrested a short time later and charged with murder.

Emergency services as well as major crime detectives swarmed to Londonderry Ave in Salisbury Downs at about 6.45pm after reports of a stabbing.

Long-term friend Daniiel Wilkey shared a series of posts to social media on Thursday, sharing her heartbreak over Mr Torrans’ death.

“Jordan Torrans ... you’ll always be in my heart. R.I.P,” Ms Wilkey wrote.

In a tragic twist, Ms Wilkey also lost her partner Brad Hill in a fatal crash on Tuesday, after his motorbike collided with a car on North East Road at Inglewood.
