Brian St Louis secures the acquittal of SB

Brian St.Louis secured the acquittal of SB, alleged to have been the "Honey-trap" who lured AW to his death. AW was shot dead in the street in Brockley in April 2006 in what was described by the prosecution as an "execution". DN was convicted of organising his murder from inside Belmarsh Prison using a mobile phone, and was ordered to serve a minimum of 30 years.

During the jury's deliberations Mr St Louis' client was attacked in the dock in what the judge said was "Even by the standards of Court one at the Old Bailey, it was an astonishing outburst."
