Eight-month delay for trial of Amanda suspect

GRIEVING relatives, friends and neighbours of a popular youth project worker stabbed to death, will have to endure a further eight months before the trial of her alleged killer.
At the Old Bailey, the Recorder of London, Judge Peter Beaumont, was told that Amanda Cummin’s accused lover has been admitted to top security Broadmoor Hospital.
Psychiatrists will take a minimum six months to assess his mental condition.
The murder trial of 22 year old Darren John, which was to have been held this month was put off until June next year.
Jobless John is said to have launched a fatal knife attack on Amanda (pictured right) last December.
John, of Aborfield, Peckwater Street, Kentish Town, was arrested soon after 27 year old churchgoer Amanda, also known by the surname Bentsi-Addison, was found dying in a pool of blood.
She was attacked in the street near her family home on the College Place Estate.
