A MOTHER told a court
how she shopped her
own son to the police
because she believed he
had beaten a man and
left him for dead.
Hilary Kellett, pictured, said
she was violently sick at the
thought her "own flesh and
blood" could have been responsible
for the terrible injuries suffered
by Scott Speirs during an
attack in a Southampton park.
Jurors heard that she had given
her son Liam Edwards's name to
officers after hearing Mr Speirs'
mum pleading for someone to
come forward with information
about the brutal assault. The victim
is still in a coma six months
later.
Edwards, 27, and his friend
Adam Stebbing,32, are on trial for
the attempted murder of Mr
Speirs, 34. They are accused of
leaving him fighting for life after
stamping on his head at least 12
times. They both deny the charge.
