Crazy Titch Found Guilty of Murder

For those that didn't read the RWDmag Breaking news...
Part One (the day before the verdict)

Since November 14, Carl Dobson (Crazy Titch), Dwayne J. Mahorn (Durrty Goodz previously Doogz) and Anthony Green (step-father) have been on remand and charged with the murder of Richard Holmes. When the court case started on September 11, the Central Criminal Court in London’s Old Bailey has seen protected witnesses, analysing of lyrics and numerous evidence such as mobile phone records presented in front of a 12 person jury.
It may have started out in court 10 but now the (approaching) two month old trial has been bumped up to the more high-profile court 1. The same court that has seen many a high-status case, more recently seeing So Solid’s Dwayne Vincent aka Megaman cleared of murder in September.
After all the evidence was collected last week the Defence and the Prosecution rested and the jury were sent out to deliberate. Today in court, the defendants awaited their fate. With the jury deliberating since Friday their decision was supposed to be imminent. The first person to take their seat was Titch, minus his ‘Crazy Pimp’ hat he was in a plain grey tracksuit and looked untroubled with proceedings yet nervous. The second was an unrecognisable Goodz, in cream top and grey bottoms. Crazy’s step-brother (previously on Polydor Records) was different to the eye as he was minus his trademark braids as seen in Dubplate Drama and sporting reading glasses. He seemed distant from everyone around him and was followed by Anthony Green their step-father who was in a shirt and tie, his hair was out in an afro style and he sat slumped in his chair.
In the viewing gallery was the victim’s mother, aunt, sister and other family and friends. Sat opposite were the defendant’s family/ friends, including Carl’s mother Catherine Nathanial and football coach, Ray. After the court was adjourned for lunch, Ms Nathanial tells RWD, “I remember the issues Carl was in, I bet you remember Romeo.” She states of Crazy’s dog who NO-ONE can forget. “I’ve been coming back and forth to this court since September 11...” She goes on to tell RWD her views on the case and the way they’ve been treated.

Whilst we wait for the jury to make their decision Ray, tells RWD about Crazy’s footballing ability, “He’s sh*t,” Ray jokes and continues with, “He plays on the right wing. I remember when he scored his first goal, he ran around the pitch… twice.” After more talk of the case, we’re invited back into Court 1. As the judge enters, we rise and then await the jury.
They take a long slow time to get to their seats and tell the judge a decision is still not agreed, they are now going onto their sixth day of looking over evidence. Stay tuned for more updates on this case as and when it happens.

Part Two (The Verdict)... I wrote this moments after leaving the court...

After six days of deliberating, the jury finally came back with their verdict today at 2pm. It was a short wait for proceedings to start as the viewing gallery slowly filled with police and friends/ family of the defendants. Yesterday we told you what has happened so far and when the jury slowly took their seats a hush swarmed Court 1.
In the dock sat Carl Dobson (Crazy Titch) who wore a black blazer and grey patterned t-shirt, he was joined by the second defendant and step-brother Goodz (again in cream top and grey bottoms) and a shirt and tie-clad step father, Anthony Green. Titch was looking round the room and seemed tired, Goodz had his hands in a prayer-like pose, with his head down and Green sat furthest away from the gallery. First the jury were told to stand, then the defendants. The judge turned to the jury and asked the head/ lead juror if they had reached a verdict. She relayed in a semi-confident manor that they had.
23 year-old Carl Dobson and 35 year-old Anthony Green were found guilty of murder. As soon as Titch’s verdict was read out Goodz broke into tears and was rocking back and forth to await his own fate. Dwayne J. Mahorn (Durry Goodz) was found not guilty of murder or the lesser charge of manslaughter. At that point the judge sent Goodz away to be released with immediate effect.
After the verdict (which shocked friends and family in the gallery) - with Titch’s distraught mother leaving only to return moments later, the list of previous convictions were read out for sentencing.
Serving 332 days and 328 days respectively, Crazy Titch and Anthony Green awaited the judge’s summary. Onlookers listened in as he read out a heart-felt statement from the 21 year-old victim Richard Holme’s mother. Finishing his summary he went on to state, “even though we can’t say who fired the fatal shots…”, “Holmes met a chilling and unnecessary death.”, “Holmes was shot in the arm, leg and the back (as he obviously tried to run away.”, “Dobson you played a prominent role in his death.” The trial ended with them both being sentenced to 30 years in prison.
