AUSTRALIA - SIDNEY - The man charged with murdering Melbourne stripper and sex worker Johanna "Jazzy O" Martin has told how they were watching a pornographic movie when he accidentally choked her to death while she was wearing a dog collar.

Jazzy O 'killed because of debts or died in sex act gone wrong'.

Sex worker 'couldn't have strangled herself'.
"I came to the conclusion that I killed her. I was crying. I was apologising to her, saying 'sorry, this wasn't supposed to have happened'. I just wanted to run away."Steve Constantinou, 49, told a Supreme Court jury he thought Ms Martin was playing games when she slumped forward and stopped moving.
"I said, 'Honi [Ms Martin], this isn't funny. What's wrong?' " Mr Constantinou said when giving evidence in his defence during his murder trial.

"I came to the conclusion that I killed her. I was crying. I was apologising to her, saying 'sorry, this wasn't supposed to have happened'. I just wanted to run away. I did not want this to be true. It didn't feel real. Nothing felt real."
Mr Constantinou said he later pawned Ms Martin's jewellery before dumping her body wrapped in a sheet on a footpath in Lorimer Street, Port Melbourne. He said he kissed her cheek and again said sorry before driving off.
Mr Constantinou has pleaded not guilty to murdering Ms Martin on October 11, 2011.
The Crown case against Mr Constantinou is that he had intended to kill Ms Martin or cause her serious injury because he owed her a substantial amount of money.
Crown prosecutor Mark Rochford, SC, told the jury Ms Martin went to see Mr Constantinou about the $8500 she had loaned him and he didn't have the means to repay her so he strangled her and dumped the body.
When the prosecution case ended on Tuesday, Mr Constantinou was called to give evidence and told how he had met Ms Martin at the South Melbourne market in early 2011.
Mr Constantinou claimed they had sex once before Ms Martin suggested she tie him up on another occasion while they watched a pornographic movie.
He claimed he had never done anything like that before but agreed and Ms Martin used a pair of his socks to tie him to the bed before giving him oral sex.
Mr Constantinou said he then went and put the kettle on and made Ms Martin a toasted cheese sandwich with the edges cut off, which was the way she liked it.
He claimed their relationship was all about laughing and giggling and having fun but because he had a girlfriend they would be "dry humping" or having "dry sex" and did not take off their clothes.
Mr Constantinou said Ms Martin was a different person in the bedroom, describing her as "rough" whereas outside she was a beautiful, lovely lady.
On the day she died, Ms Martin had driven over to Mr Constantinou's Port Melbourne apartment about midday.
Mr Constantinou said he had a number of DVDs on his kitchen bench that he was planning to throw out, including the XXX DVD The Young John Holmes Collection.
He claimed Ms Martin was giggling about the DVD and told Mr Constantinou, "Come on big boy", before leading him into the bedroom.
Her nickname for him was "big boy" and his nickname for her was "tiger", he told the jury.
Mr Constantinou said she crawled on to the bed like a tiger and he got behind her, facing the television, before she took out a dog collar and put it on as the DVD was playing.
The collar had leather reins attached to it which Ms Martin told him to hold on to.
Mr Constantinou claimed Ms Martin was on all fours as they were dry humping for two or three minutes before "her knees just buckled and she fell just forward".
"She wasn't moving. She was laying flat on her face on the bed."
A prosecution witness, Scott Fountain, a friend of Ms Martin, had earlier told the court she would be involved in extreme strip shows but he had never known her to take part in sex games involving restraints, bondage or choking.
A former sex worker and close friend of Ms Martin also told the court Ms Martin would never do bondage and put herself in a position where she had no control or was at great risk.
The trial before Justice Phillip Priest continues.
