The record states that the trial outcome was unknown. Stumbled across this report:
Girl's killer watched video nasty
A teenager who strangled a seven year old girl after watching similar scenes on a video,
was sentenced to eight years youth custody yesterday.
Unemployed Antony Shirley (19) was cleared of murdering Nicola Spencer who was found dead at her
mother's flat in Skegness, Lincolnshire, just before last Christmas.
But he was convicted of manslaughter by the jury.
Passing sentence at Nottingham Crown Court, Mr Justice Jupp said:"He apparently on his own admission
after watching a video which contained a nasty strangling scene, went straight away and strangled the girl"
