Grace Millane trial jury retires to consider verdict

The jury in the trial of a man accused of a British backpacker's murder must "set aside sympathy" for her family, a judge has said. Grace Millane's body was found in woodland คาสิโน   near Auckland, New Zealand. Lawyers for the defendant, who is accused of strangling her, argue she died accidentally during "rough" sex. As jurors retired to consider their verdict, Justice Simon Moore also told them to disregard any distaste they may feel for the defendant's lifestyle.

On Wednesday, it was disclosure of an overheard phone call between Donald Trump and US Ambassador to the EU Gordon Sondland dreamgame during which the president may have asked about Ukrainian investigations. Friday's big developments included the White House release of a contradictory readout of the Mr Trump's first phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymy Zelensky and a presidential tweet that had Republicans in Congress scrambling. Mr Trump has boasted that his conduct while in office - blunt language and shoot-from-the-hip tweeting - is "modern-day presidential". If so, welcome to a modern-day presidential impeachment hearing. Just over an hour into Marie Yovanovitch's testimony, Mr Trump launched the kind of Twitter fusillade that has become a regular part of his political repertoire. He questi
