The wife of a dad of two who was beaten to death while he was on a Stag night has told the Central Criminal Court of the grief of feeling how her husband "died in fear".
However, last month a jury of six men and six women arrived at their guilty verdict after four hours and 48 minutes of their deliberations over two days. Mrs Parsons said that when she received the call about the attack on Vincent, she was "in denial" that it was him. CCTV showed Mr Parsons leaving the pub after that interaction and then, once outside, running from the pub.
Mr Staines had told the jury that the two accused had "acted together each and every step of the way in common design" before and after the killing, which CCTV evidence showed.
