Jurors visit scenes of killings

Marsha McDonnell was attacked near her home

Jurors in the case of a man accused of murdering women he stalked at bus stops in London will be visiting the areas where women were attacked.

The jurors were to be taken to Hampton and Longford Village in west London where Levi Bellfield, 39, is alleged to have attacked two of his victims.

Mr Bellfield, of West Drayton, west London, denies murdering Amelie Delagrange and Marsha McDonnell.

He also denies two attempted murders and a kidnapping.

The judge, Mrs Justice Rafferty, barristers, police and court staff were also due to tour the sites with the jurors.

Prosecutors allege the former wheel clamper and pub bouncer battered Miss McDonnell, 19, to death after she got off a bus near her home in Hampton in February 2003.

Irma Dragoshi, 33, suffered a head injury in an attack at a bus stop in Longford Village in December 2003.

On Thursday the jurors were expected to be taken to Twickenham where French student Amelie Delagrange was battered over the head with a heavy object in August 2004.
