Man Charged with Manslaughter in Beaumont Leys Park Incident

0:00A 33-year-old man from Beaumont-Lays showed up in Lester Magistrate's Court on April 8th, charged with manslaughter in the death of Adethi, 62-year-old local. Joshua Moore only confirmed his name, age, and birthday during the hearing before District Judge Nick Watson. Judges turned down his bail request because of how serious the charges, so Moore stays locked up for now. The whole case heads to Lester Crown Court next month for a plea hearing on May 26th. Moore only calls the victim Jimmy McKean, or Spider to folks around, a loving father, brother, partner, and grandfather who'd called the area home for. Almost 20 years, they say the park incident flipped their world upside down forever and just wants space to grieve. Cops wrapped up the initial court bit, but investigations into the April 6th clash keep rolling. Detective Inspector Kevin Hames is putting out the call for any witnesses with details. As this manslaughter probe pushes ahead, expect more updates from Crown Court, shedding light on what really went down in that park.
