Mr Langhorn now reads the statement of PC James Whatley.
“On June 25, at 10.30 in duty in full uniform. We attended the A361 Pilton assisted with a stop vehicle containing males. The first identified himself as James William Witham. I searched a blue and navy holdall.. At the bottom of this bag I located a black handled flick knife…approx three inches in length.”
PC Whatley says he arrested the second male, who stated the bag was not his. Witham confirmed the bag was his. He was arrested and stated: “I didn’t know it was in there”.
Bodyworn footage of this stop is now played to the jury.
Witham is shown stood in front of a red vehicle wearing a two-tone blue jacket and a blue cap.
The officer with the camera searches a bag. He picks up Barry’s passport, and then the knife: “Oh hello Mr Niall”.
He walks over to Barry, who is seated in the back seat of a patrol car, and waves the knife at him. Barry says: “That’s not my bag.”
Witham shouts over that the bag is his. Witham tells the officer there is ketamine in the bag. The officer returns to the bag.
The officer tells Witham he is under arrest for possession of the knife, and reads him his rights.
PC: “Where is the ketamine in here then. I have searched the bag and I can’t find any ketamine?”
The officer searches through the bag, finding cash and a driving licence. The officer tells his colleague that Barry confirmed his passport was in the bag, but said it was not his. He says the other man, Witham, immediately confirmed it was his bag.
The footage ends.

Mr Langhorn displays a map of the UK. DC Hunter says it shows cell site locations for a phone attributed to Joseph Peers as it journeys from Liverpool to Somerset on Saturday, June 25, 2022.
It is cell-sited at Glastonbury until the following day, June 26.
