The 16-year-old (pictured at her father and step-mother's wedding far right) was suffocated at her home in Bristol by her step-brother Nathan Matthews (far left), before he and his girlfriend Shauna Hoare (second from right) hatched a gruesome plan to dispose of her body, a court heard today.
Becky Watts was murdered and cut up with a power saw after her step-brother and his girlfriend planned to kidnap her for sex
, a court has heard.
The 16-year-old was killed in a bedroom of her home in Bristol by Nathan Matthews and Shauna Hoare on February 19 this year, jurors were told.
Prosecutor William Mousley QC said the pair then spent three days cutting up the body and 'carefully packaging each individual parcel, using metres and metres of clingfilm'.
Matthews, 28, has confessed to killing Becky but he says there was no intention to kill and he acted alone.
Bristol Crown Court heard he ordered a takeaway meal on the night of her death, then went to a B&Q store the following day and bought a power saw to use in the disposal of her body.
Becky's step brother who killed her and girl friend
A post-mortem examination found that, after her death, Becky was stabbed 15 times in the abdomen. She had been dismembered across her neck and above her knees, elbows and wrists.
Matthews admits killing Becky but says he didn't mean to. Hoare also denies murder. Donovan Demetrius and James Ireland also face trial accused of assisting an offender....Becky sent her friend a final text shortly before she is believed to have been killed at her home
Becky's father & grand dad
Summarising the prosecution's case, Mr Mousley said: 'Rebecca Watts, known to all as Becky, aged 16, was killed in her bedroom. She was suffocated, despite her fighting for her life.'
Becky's mother, Tanya Watts, fled the court room in tears as the case was opened to the jury.
He said: 'Evidence was found on telephones, computers and computer-related equipment connected to both Nathan Matthews and Shauna Hoare which showed a shared sexual interest in teenage and petite girls.
'Also found at their home were two stun guns, which were prohibited weapons and which may have been intended for the use in the planned kidnap.'
...and now we are asking,are these people worthy of living on earth????
