Morning.
I am in Liverpool Crown Court for day three of the trial of Callum Wilcocks, who strangled his on-off girlfriend to death.
Wilcocks, now 23, killed 17-year-old mum of one Kelsey Marie Shaw on the afternoon of April 29, 2011, after a row about him cheating on her cousin.
The pair had spent the previous night drinking and snorting cocaine with Kelseys friend Rebecca McDonald, at Miss McDonalds flat in Foundry Lane, Widnes.
Kelsey Shaw died in April, 2011
Yesterday the court heard Wilcocks told police “a mad feeling” told him “she needed to die”, prompting him to choke her to death.
Wilcocks is due to take the stand this morning.
Proceedings will be delayed slightly due to transport difficulties getting Wilcocks to court on time.
The jury has been told the case will begin at 10.30am.
Wilcocks is being called to the dock and Mr Justice Holroyde is about to enter court.
Mr Justice Holroyde is in the room, and the members of the jury are taking their seats.
