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.

The 27-year-old man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, is accused of killing Ms Millane, from Wickford, Essex, after a Tinder date.

Auckland High Court has heard the pair drank  บาคาร่า cocktails for several hours before returning to his hotel room in the city centre.

The defence says Ms Millane died when consensual chokingor "breathplay" went wrong.
