Fiona Beal, 50, admits she killed 42-year-old Nicholas Billingham but denies murder.
A primary school teacher accused of stabbing her partner to death “in cold blood” before burying his body in their garden has pleaded guilty to manslaughter.
“She has accepted that she is guilty of the lesser offence of manslaughter. She has pleaded guilty to that offence. She does not accept she is guilty of murder. Her defence is based on a so-called partial defence to murder.” The prosecutor called the Covid narrative “sustained and dishonest” and told jurors there is “no evidence” that Beal took a PCR test.Mr Davies told jurors the messages from Mr Billingham’s phone was Beal “pretending to be him” in a move that was “as heartless as it was self-serving”.
In the cabin, police found journals “written in her hand” that showed “a wholly different side to her personality”. “Promising sex after a bath, she stabbed him in the neck when he was wearing a sleep mask and was probably cabled-tied on their bed.” Jurors heard one entry said: “Still my actions haunt me. I sometimes have to catch myself and remember what I did and then remember my cover story – neither seem convincing.”
