Jury Begin Deliberations on Kayden Moy Murder Trial as Two Teens Accused
Prosecutors say 18-year-old Cole Turley has already pleaded guilty, while the two remaining defendants deny murder as jurors consider the case.
- A jury at the High Court in Glasgow resumed deliberations on Friday regarding the murder of 16-year-old Kayden Moy, with Jay Stewart, 18, and a 15-year-old boy accused of the killing while Cole Turley has already pleaded guilty.
- The fatal incident occurred on May 17 last year at Irvine Beach, where members of the Murray Boys and Himshies clashed; Judge Lord Scott confirmed Turley indisputably murdered the 16-year-old during the confrontation.
- Defense attorney Donald Findlay KC argued there is "not a scrap of evidence" linking Stewart to the crime, while Ian Duguid KC contended the 15-year-old expected a fist-fight: "He was not thinking it was going to be a stabbing."
- Judge Lord Scott instructed the jury that the "crucial issue" is determining whether the accused acted in concert with Turley, as prosecutors withdrew all charges against Stewart and the 15-year-old except the murder charge, which both deny.
- After beginning Thursday, jury deliberations continue Friday as jurors weigh testimony to determine whether Stewart and the 15-year-old bear criminal responsibility for events at Irvine Beach.
