James Watson, 42, was handed a minimum jail term of 15 years in 2022 after being found guilty of killing Rikki Neave when he was aged 13.
A 42-year-old man given a life sentence after being found guilty of murdering a six-year-old boy nearly 30 years ago is waiting for a ruling on an appeal.
Three appeal judges – Lord Justice Holroyde, Mr Justice Morris and Judge Angela Morris – are scheduled to deliver a ruling on Monday. The Crown Prosecution Service said a “key piece” of evidence against Watson was “DNA he left” on Rikki’s clothes. Jennifer Dempster KC said there had been a “total disregard” towards preserving exhibits in the case.
