Man ‘accidentally’ kills woman during sex
A UK man who has been accused of raping and murdering his friend has told the jury he “accidentally killed her during sex”.
The missing 20-year-old, who weighed just 41kg, was discovered by her uncle during a search party, in Wigginton Park in Tamworth, Staffordshire, around 23km northeast of Birmingham.Giving evidence in his defence for the first time today, Streete outlined what he claims happened before her death.He agreed that he had been at Snobs nightclub in Birmingham city centre with Bunker and another friend, Monique Riggon, some hours earlier, before they returned to their home town of Tamworth.
“I was scared and didn’t know how to tell people how she died. I was scared to explain to the police, everyone, and mum and dad,” he said.He said the pair and smoked cannabis “about four times a week” from 5pm or 7pm or 8pm at Wigginton Park. Prosecutors have told the jury Streete changed his account at least four times between his arrest and the trial.
The man has also been accused of two further counts of rape, three counts of sexual assault and a charge of sexual activity with a child, against three other victims, all said to have happened in previous years.In the UK, the “rough sex gone wrong” defence is set to be outlawed in new domestic abuse legislation at the end of the year, a justice minister told MPs.
“We now hope that the rest of the world takes notice, and follows our lead, especially New Zealand. Changes need to be made to protect women & make sure this doesn’t happen again,” the family said in a statement.
