Two Nottingham men have been sentenced today for the murder of 22-year-old Davices Anderson, who was fatally stabbed at a flat in the city center. The sentencing follows a seven-week trial at Nottingham Crown Court, during which a jury deliberated for three days before returning guilty verdicts on Courtney McLeary and David Francis, who were found responsible for Anderson’s death at an address off Huntingdon Street.
