Alex Rose appeared via video link from HMP Wandsworth at Guildford Crown Court on Tuesday, where he also denied a charge of perverting the course of justice. The victims, William Birchard, 21, and Darren George, 22, died after a collision on the A316 southbound slip road on the M3 in Sunbury-on-Thames, Surrey, on July 22.
Details of the Case
The court heard that Rose is accused of murdering Mr. Birchard and Mr. George and falsely reporting his black Ford Ranger as stolen between July 21 and 22 in an attempt to cover up his involvement. Prosecutors allege that this false report had the potential to “pervert the course of justice.”
