The New Year's Eve crash that killed convicted murderer Stephen Bonallie is still being probed by police almost six months on.
Bonallie was just 17 years old when he battered vulnerable Brent Martin to death, along with William Hughes and Marcus Miller. All three were jailed for life for the senseless slaying, in 2007, during which Brent, 23, begged for his life.
But Bonallie was released from jail last year after serving his minimum prison term. And during the early hours of New Year's Eve, the 32-year-old died after the car he was in collided with a tree, on the A167 near Durham city centre.
