Morgan Freeman's Step-Grand Daughter Stabbed To Death On New York Street By Boyfriend In Cocaine-fuelled Rage Shouting "I Cast You Out Devils'"

Morgan Freeman's granddaughter E'Dena Hines 'stabbed to death by Lamar Davenport'
The wannabe rapper who allegedly stabbed Morgan Freeman's step-granddaughter to death on a Manhattan sidewalk early on Sunday morning in an apparent 'exorcism' has been named as a friend of the couple.
E'Dena Hines, 33, was found dead after live-in boyfriend Lamar Davenport, 30, supposedly attacked her near her home in Washington Heights and stood over her body screaming: 'Get out devils!'
Witness Brydon Tarafa, 28, told Dailymail.com that he was in his apartment when he heard a man maniacally shouting 'Jesus Christ is born', shortly after a woman screamed.
Davenport, an aspiring actor who is said to have a history of drug abuse, was arrested and taken to Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center, reportedly to undergo psychological testing
Ray Roasrio, who claims to be Davenport's best friend, says he went out for dinner with the couple and some friends late on Saturday night, and it was the happiest he had seen Hines for a long time.

He told The Daily Beast: 'I’m still trying to come to grips with what happened. I’m caught between the hate I have for him, my love for him being my brother, and my heart breaking for her.'
Rosario added the pair were 'ecstatic' just hours before the brutal death. 
According to Davenport's Facebook, he used to work for an Auto Parts shop and studied English Literature at New York University. 
He was trying to become a rapper, performing under the nickname Lyric. 
One witness to the murder described the demented scene which unfolded around 3am.
'Get out, devils! I cast you out, devils! In the name of Jesus Christ, I cast you out!,' the boyfriend screamed, said George Hudacko, 65, who saw the attack from his window in Washington Heights and called 911
Witnesses told The New York Post that the man continued to stab Hines' lifeless body until police arrested him. When officers arrived he was reportedly still making the stabbing motion while the knife was stuck in her chest - and he didn't have anything in his fist.
