Those lefty do-gooders who decry the 'Joint enterprise' legislation are going to have a hard time with this one:
The prosecution says while only one person stabbed Mr Shepherd, the jury should find them guilty of murder via joint enterprise.
'One person may have delivered the fatal blows but the prosecution case is the three are jointly liable as they were acting together in a joint attack,' she said.Is there any evidence they were all in it together? Yes, it's all on camera!
'He was reaching for [the knife]. He was going to use it on Joe, Harrison, or me, or all of us,' he said.
Then why didn't you run away, instead of towards him?
O'Keeffe told jurors the victim's dog was 'being very aggressive', that the pet was 'snarling and barking', and as such, he believed the pet would bite him.
Then why did you incapacitate the man holding the lead that held it under control?
The trial continues.
I hope the lunches are good there. I can't think what else is keeping the jury from rendering the verdict right now!
