Alleged killer told 'pack of lies', jury told as lawyers make closing speeches in Luke O'Connor murder trial - as defence claims deceased was 'up for a fight'
Lawyers have made their closing speeches to the jury at the trial of a student accused of murder. Shiloh George Pottinger, 19, is standing trial after being charged with the murder Luke O'Connor in Fallowfield. He has pleaded not guilty.
During his evidence before the jury last week, Mr Pottinger admitted stabbing Mr O'Connor, a student at Manchester Metropolitan University, but maintained he was acting in self-defence.Mr Pottinger, then a student at BIMM, a university offering music courses, has pleaded guilty to possessing a bladed article, and claimed he had the knife to carry out work on his skateboard.
The KC said: "He has, you may think, given quite a lot of thought to how he might try to explain away the evidence that shows his guilt." "Shiloh Pottinger didn't start anything on Wilmslow Road that night," she said. "Luke O'Connor confronted Shiloh Pottinger."
