Man convicted of murdering dad in drug deal was 'in wrong place at wrong time' says mum

The mum of a young man convicted of a joint enterprise murder in which a dad was stabbed to death in a drug deal gone wrong claims her son was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.

East Londoner Ryan Graham, who became a dad a week before he was arrested, was jailed for 27 years after he was convicted, alongside Syd Goss and Jermain Forrester, of murdering Lee Baxter in October 2020 after what the court heard was an attempt to rob him of his cash.

His mum, Samantha Ludlow, 53, says her family's life has been turned upside down since he was put behind bars, reports MyLondon.
