Serious & General Crime Cases
R v K
Represented a young person aged 14 years old facing an allegation of Murder with four others before the Central Criminal Court. It was alleged the victim was run over in a stolen car and stabbed 15 times. This complex case involved cell site evidence, forensic evidence and considerable CCTV evidence.
R v T
Trial before Snaresbrook Crown Court for two allegations of child cruelty. Client and victims both gave evidence. Victims were cross examined in compliance with gateway 6 and the vulnerable witness protocol. After a five day trial the jury returned unanimous verdicts of not guilty.
R v R
Represented a young person for trial at Snaresbrook Crown Court with another for possession of a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence. This case involved instructing an expert to examine the air velocity of the firearm, after the definition of a firearm was amended in the new Act 22 days after the client was arrested and charged. This step was crucial to determine whether the gun was a firearm or an imitation, as it would determine if the client was subject to minimum term sentence for firearms.
Operation Flores
Conspiracy to supply heroin when 52 kilos of heroin was discovered and a firearm at an address in Ilford. This complex case involved substantial telephone downloads, CCTV evidence and cell site evidence.
