Thanks Breadvan
The 'He was a loner, in the last chance saloon that couldn't hold down a job' stuff reminds me of the stuff thrown about about Christopher Jefferies.

The Police were searching a river in this case?
If so then could his defence be, "She was alive when i threw her in the river, I didn't kill her?".
That wouldn't work. If he intentionally threw her in the river and it was clear to a reasonable man that to do so would kill or grievously harm her, then he can be convicted of murder.If so then could his defence be, "She was alive when i threw her in the river, I didn't kill her?".
We don't yet have full scale plea bargaining as seen on US cops 'n' court shows, but in any event there doesn't seem to be much room here for a deal. The defendant might try for manslaughter, perhaps alleging diminished responsibility, but the prosecution may have little incentive to accept a plea to that offence. We are speculating, as not much more info will be made public before the trial.

No need for a trial, I think you are guilty so I am going to stick a big spike up you jacksy and watch you wriggle for a few days.
