O
No, that's what he claimed during his trial. He confessed after he was found guilty.

Edit - Sorry Slucie, for some reason your reply wasn't there when I replied.
oohhhhh whoops, so he did! My bad!

I wonder when the verdict will be announced for the appeal? I think it will still be a little while yet but I'm still hoping it's sooner rather than later lol.

I thought, after hearing the arguments his QC put across that it would be quite an easy decision for the judges to make. I expected a decision relatively quickly. Of course I’m no lawyer or have any expertise in the field of law.

Oh wow, I was hoping it would be announced soon.
I'm sure Alesha's family will be upset.

[21] In his interview with Dr Macpherson the appellant volunteered that he was “quite satisfied” with the murder. He reported that he continued to experience thoughts of killing and having sex with children and having sex with dead bodies.

wtf
