A man accused of murdering a father-of-two who was shot and attacked with acid has been removed from court after interrupting the judge.
The jury in the trial of Michael Hillier and Rachel Fulstow retired to consider their verdicts earlier. Michael Hiller, 39, admits killing Liam Smith, 38, outside his Wigan home on 24 November, but denies murder at Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court.The court heard Mr Smith went on a date with Ms Fulstow, 37, in 2019.Mr Hillier told the court they plotted together to attack Mr Smith after Ms Fulstow, who he was in a relationship with, told him she had been raped.
Summing up the case, Judge Maurice Greene reminded the jury of Ms Fulstow's evidence about sex with Mr Smith, which she said she did not consider to be rape."What sort of message does that send out? Sex is consensual, rape isn't."
