Overview

  • Richard Jones testified that Anita Rose’s last words at 5:24 am on July 24 were ‘drive safe, I love you’ during a three-minute call.
  • He said a subsequent WhatsApp video call at 6:15 am showed only a black screen and played no audio.
  • Jones learned of Rose’s accident from her vet at 8:20 am and reached Addenbrooke’s Hospital around 12:30 pm after being told she had been taken there.
  • The prosecution presented evidence from Barclay’s campsites including Rose’s pink jacket with semen stains and walking-boot soles matching marks on her face.
  • Phone records reveal Barclay searched ‘how long does DNA last at a crime scene’ days after the attack and he continues to deny any involvement in court.
