Hi and Welcome
My thoughts ... the more I read of the 'witness' statements, the more I'd like to give them a damned good shake!!!
A project manager is a fairly decent job, you'd need to be somewhat intelligent and yet, he "thought it was a Policeman" ?!(shaking my head!) But then (if the Mirror article is factual) he saw them again and did he STILL think it was a policeman? Even when she apparently said 'hold my hand' AND STILL DID NOTHING?
A second witness, heard screams that left her rigid with fear and yet again, NOTHING?
I'm more gobsmacked at the apathy of the witness than the depravity of the two accused right now.
Lastly, I think Beadman, as anyone on trial, should HAVE to be present and face their trial. Disgusting that he gets to spit his dummy out and hide in his cell.
