Speedboat killer’s lawyer says victim’s family is ‘gloating’ over his imprisonment
‘Now they are trying to make it look like he had no moral right to appeal, which would deny him the chance to prove his innocence, just to see him in prison – guilty or otherwise.‘They have refused to accept his apology despite him apologising several times. And several times he reiterated his wish to see and talk to them before he even made the decision to accept extradition, but they always ignored it.
Charlotte, 24, from Essex, drowned after the pair went for a late-night speedboat ride down the River Thames on their first date in December 2015. Shepherd fled the UK and spent 10 months hiding in Georgia, before he was extradited earlier this week. Her sister Katie Brown, wiping away tears, continued: ‘I feel throughout the whole process that he continues to be in denial of any kind of responsibility, as though he’s almost convinced himself he’s the victim.’Mr Brown, thanked the police, the Georgian authorities and the press following the hearing.
