Man denies planning robbery of Olympic cyclist Mark Cavendish at Manchester party, court told
A man has denied planning the robbery of Olympic cyclist Mark Cavendish at a party he attended in Manchester with his co-accused days before the incident, a court heard. Balaclava-clad intruders broke into Cavendish’s home in Ongar, Essex, on November 27, 2021, while he was asleep upstairs with his wife Peta, with their three-year-old child also in the bed, prosecutors said.
Henry denied planning the robbery with Sesay and Okorosobo at a party they attended in Manchester, between November 16 and 18, 2021. Giving evidence on Monday, he replied to the suggestion: “I say that is not true.” Henry said: “Tashawn was murdered in our home. He was stabbed.” Jurors heard an individual was convicted of the murder and sentenced to 22 years in prison.
After Tashawn’s death, it is said that Ms Campbell’s “addiction” to drugs and alcohol “became worse”. Henry lived with her until October 2021, and said her drinking “had spiralled out of control”. He added that he would drink Hennessy 'from morning until night' and started to take small amounts of cocaine before his drug consumption 'escalated' to taking crack, cannabis, Xanax and promethazine. Henry said: “At the time these were the only things that was crippling my pain.”
