Defence resumes outlining five key concepts in Toyah Cordingley murder trial
“Defence counsel Angus Edwards KC has suggested Toyah Cordingley could have been killed by youth criminals during “a robbery gone wrong”.Mr Edwards told the jury if there was a reasonable other possibility open that someone else killed Ms Cordingley they must find Mr Singh not guilty.
“It’s not enough if that possibility is one of the possibilities that fits the evidence.
“Even if you think that it is one rational possibility that Rajwinder Singh killed Toyah Cordingley, because if there is more than one possibility open, the law requires you go much further,” he said.
“In the end, to convict him, you would have to be convinced that him being the killer is the only reasonable possibility open on the evidence.”
