UK - Chloe and Josh Bashford, killed in Newhaven, June 2023 *arrest/charged*

[Columbo Was The Best]

I am told that the trial is due to begin on Feb 17th 2025...(was told this by the clerk in Lewes). I attended the court on the date I was expecting only to find it had been adjourned (again)...I will attend and report back (if people want me to)

Appreciated!! Yes, that would be great. It is still not clear to me how this man knew the victims and what went into his crazy mind to commit this crime.

Thanks for the update. So odd how this case is being pushed back and back, while others come to court at a moment's notice. Feel very sorry for the families of Chloe and Josh.

Redirect Notice

A family say they have been "destroyed" by multiple delays of the trial of a man who is accused of murdering their son and his wife in their family home.
Josh Bashford, 33, and his 30-year-old wife, Chloe, died in Newhaven in June 2023, and a man was charged by police soon after.
A trial has been postponed five times - delays which Josh's mother, Sharon Bashford, said were "cruel", and had left the family feeling there has not been any justice for her son.
The Ministry of Justice said in a statement: "We know that justice delayed is justice denied, and it is clear there are many cases taking far too long to go to trial."
