Four defendants are on trial at Liverpool Crown Court accused of assisting an offender after the 26-year-old beautician was shot dead
A woman accused of assisting an offender in relation to Elle Edwards’ murder allegedly messaged her mum “I’m minding his f***ing clothes”, a court has heard. Ms Edwards, a 26-year-old beautician, died after Connor Chapman opened fire with a Skorpion sub-machine gun outside the Lighthouse pub in Wallasey on Christmas Eve 2022. Chapman was convicted of her murder in July last year and later jailed for life with a minimum term of 48 years .
The court also heard she knew Chapman was wanted by the police but claimed she did not know what for. Ms Appleton added: “She stated it was her mother’s idea to steal the jewellery and after she had done so, panicked and just wanted to give it back.” The court heard Matthews was alleged to have harboured Chapman at her home in Noctorum , which had a converted loft room that jurors were shown a photo of.
