CPS apologises for 'inappropriate and insensitive remarks' during murder trial

Jason Edwards, Lee Strickland and Dionne Timms-Williams were found guilty of murdering Dr Gary Jenkins in a Cardiff park on July 10, 2021.

Despite the 54-year-old pleading for his life during the brutal 15 minute attack, he was left for dead in a Cardiff park and died two weeks later.
