Jack Shepherd: Speedboat killer admits fleeing UK
Charlotte Brown died in December 2015 when Shepherd took her on a date on his speedboat
Defence barrister Andrew McGee said he understood Shepherd had travelled to Georgia in March last year. He said he had travelled"under his own name, using his own passport" before he handed himself in to police in January.He added:"It [absconding] was not deliberately callous or cavalier. It was not cynical or calculated."Shepherd, originally from Exeter, appeared in the dock wearing a dark suit, light shirt and no tie, flanked by two guards.
He last appeared at the Old Bailey in November 2017, when he denied manslaughter, and was not present for the trial or sentencing in July last year.Related Topics
