Mr Jones branded Reszpondek determined and cold, and said he had done everything he could to protect himself. Mr Meadows provided some of these clips he had screen-recorded to the police - these were then shown as part of a compilation to the jury on day one of the trial. But police found his DNA on her mattress and deleted “glamour photographs” of Ms Rodgers on his digital camera which included her in underwear and semi-naked poses. Later messages from Mr Walley to Mr Bull stated that Jones was "acting suspiciously" with "a knife and screwdriver" by "making stabbing motions" towards the victim. The defendant watched the police looking for the body from the top of a nearby slag heap, hiding in bushes, wearing camouflage clothing and using binoculars.

The third witness in court was Michael Farmer, who appeared via video link. He told the jury that he had known Mr Walley for ‘a couple of years’ and that he also knew Jones through mutual friends.The coroner has been informed and we are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding the death." A further two men arrested on suspicion of murder following the death of a 59-year-old man have been released on bail as investigations into the incident continue. ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌‌‌​‍‌​‌​‌‌​​‍‌​​‌‌‌‌​‍‌​​​​‌‌​‍‌​‌​‌​‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌‌‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​​​​‌‌​‍‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‍‌​​​‌‌​‌‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌​‌​‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌​‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​​​‌​​‌‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​​​‌‌​​ On Thursday March 19, 2009 after months of surveillance, the police “made a big show of digging in the fields around that area, looking for the body of Ermatati Rodgers, with a lot of press publicity.

The court heard how he had 'loaned' a friend his bike who later lent it to Jones with Mr Farmer's permission. This was the bike Mr Davies had seen him leaving Mr Walley's flat with. Ms Jones was asked about screenshots of a call log taken from her phone between herself and Mr Walley. She confirms that Mr Walley and herself had called one another on July 11 and that conversation lasted over 20 minutes at around 4.30pm.The defendant was crying and the officer noticed that the 19-year-old had a "large laceration" on his hand. He was arrested and taken to Wrexham Maelor Hospital for treatment. The fourth witness called to the stand was Charlotte Upton who was Jones' probation officer and said that she had had 'no issues' with the defendant. The man, who was arrested earlier this week, has been released pending further investigations. ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌‌‌​‍‌​‌​‌‌​​‍‌​​‌‌‌‌​‍‌​​​​‌‌​‍‌​‌​‌​‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌‌‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​​​​‌‌​‍‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‍‌​​​‌‌​‌‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌​‌​‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌​‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​​​‌​​‌‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​​​‌‌​​ Mr Davies then made the decision to call the police due to the ‘silence’ coming from the flats and what he had just overheard Jones say. The next witness brought into court was Ms Attia Jones, who never met Mr Walley in person but had become friends with him through Snapchat some four or five days before his death.

As investigations into a murder case in Wrexham continue, a second man, who was arrested on suspicion of murder, has been released on bail today. ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌‌‌​‍‌​‌​‌‌​​‍‌​​‌‌‌‌​‍‌​​​​‌‌​‍‌​‌​‌​‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌‌‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​​​​‌‌​‍‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‍‌​​​‌‌​‌‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌​‌​‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌​‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​​​‌​​‌‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​​​‌‌​​ Police searching fields around the Erddig area of Wrexham close to where Ermatati's body was actually buried in March 2009At 6:42am on June 12 John Ithell, of Pentre Gwyn, Wrexham, was found on a lane adjacent to Cefn Road, Wrexham. ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌‌‌​‍‌​‌​‌‌​​‍‌​​‌‌‌‌​‍‌​​​​‌‌​‍‌​‌​‌​‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌‌‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​​​​‌‌​‍‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‍‌​​​‌‌​‌‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌​‌​‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌​‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​​​‌​​‌‍‌​​‌‌​‌​‍‌​​​‌‌​​ She later heard Mr Walley tell Jones to 'put the knife down kiddo' - which was the name he used when referring to the defendant.
