'The ill-fated relationship was beset with problems'
A jury has been told the relationship between Kiena Dawes and her partner Ryan Wellings was ‘a recipe for disaster’ which both should have walked away from.
“We know now this relationship bore all the ingredients of disaster and something that neither could cope with - although goodness gracious, they certainly tried.” “This corrosive and destructive combination was to bring heartache to both and death to one,” Mr Jones said. “You must determine what caused that death.
Wellings also had deep seated problems with drugs and his temper, which were clear from a previous conviction relating to his former partner He said: “Is Kiena simply someone who suffers EUPD which manifests through severe and uncontrollable mood swings? Perhaps when she said those things to her friends she genuinely believed them to be so - it was a source of irritation one minute and hours later they were forgotten.
