car rally in Siberia. Emma Wilkinson was taking part in the Peking to | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
Paris race described as the longest and toughest challenge anyone can | :01:13. | :01:18. | |
drive in a classic car. She had been taking turns to drive with her | :01:18. | :01:23. | |
partner Peter Davies. It was the first time she had taken part in the | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
rally and she had previously told reporters she was doing it for the | :01:26. | :01:32. | |
fun of it. She was a fun loving mother with a surge of adventure and | :01:32. | :01:42. | |
:01:42. | :01:54. | ||
it was during one of those advances that Emma Wilkinson lost her life. | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
Three weeks into the Germans rally she was killed in a head-on | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
collision on a Siberian highway. Just a day earlier she spoke to | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
reporters about her progress. wanted to compete and beat them but | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
sadly they are beating me. Emma Wilkinson lived in Brigg stock near | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
Kettering. She was joined on the rally by her partner. News of her | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
death has saddened the community. Emma and her partner Peter Davies | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
left the village last month for the race. Rally director Philip Young | :02:13. | :02:19. | |
described as a fun, by the unpopular. He went to # want to say | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
that both she and Peter proved themselves to be capable, competent | :02:24. | :02:30. | |
and resourceful. She was great fun to have around. A very attractive, | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
the vicious driver who enjoyed driving, enjoyed the company of | :02:34. | :02:40. | |
others and we all miss her very much. MR's partner was not seriously | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
hurt in the crash. Russian police are now investigating reports the | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
driver of the other car fell asleep at the wheel. The foreign office | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
says they are helping the family through this difficult time while | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
friends and neighbours struggle to come to terms with such devastating | :02:58. | :03:06. | |
news. A woman from Harlow who was attacked | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
in her sleep and left locked in a room by her violent partner has | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
spoken today about her abuse. It comes on the day a report has called | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
for a review into the way Essex Police deals with the most high risk | :03:17. | :03:27. | |
:03:27. | :03:28. | ||
victims of domestic violence. Maria, Jeanette, Christine - all | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
murdered by their ex-partners after police failings. The links to | :03:32. | :03:38. | |
identify the risk they faced, feelings to manage those risks. | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
police are the last line of defence and they seem to be failing us | :03:42. | :03:49. | |
nationally, so that is why working with the refuge is so important. It | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
is about time we protected vulnerable women and children and | :03:52. | :03:59. | |
even men. The report says the way offices deal with domestic violence | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
is of significant concern. Although the initial response that the police | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
make to a call from a victim is the right response, what then happens is | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
there with lots of people that get involved in providing care and | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
protection for the victim and those people do not talk to one another. | :04:18. | :04:25. | |
One Vic Tim says the way she was treated by officers was diabolical. | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
After years of rapes, beatings and abuse, she called police but did not | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
told them she had been hit in the face and they did not ask about her | :04:36. | :04:42. | |
injuries. They told him I had been ringing the helpline and the things | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
I was saying they don't fault to him. He looked to me in a room for | :04:47. | :04:53. | |
two days the next day. He played music over and over again. He was | :04:53. | :05:00. | |
screaming in my face. There was a bucket in the room to go to toilet. | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
The report says Essex Police have taken important steps to improve | :05:04. | :05:12. | |
their work but much more needs to be done. 12 recommendations are for | :05:12. | :05:19. | |
Essex Police to do. The others are what they can do in partnership with | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
other agencies. You are saying other agencies also have to answer for | :05:25. | :05:34. | |
:05:35. | :05:35. | ||
this. All agencies have to answer. Stephen Kaplan acknowledges the need | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
for improvements. He stresses officers will listen to victims and | :05:38. | :05:45. | |
help them. A couple from Beds accused of making | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
fake devices to detect explosives were back in court as lawyers make | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
their last arguments in their defence. Samuel and Joan Tree are | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
charged with making them in order to commit a fraud. | :05:58. | :06:03. | |
The prosecution says they are con artists who knew that offer six | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
device was a useless sham. The defence says they are honest but | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
misguided people who genuinely believed the handset worked. Samuel | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
and Joan Tree manufactured the devices here at their home. They | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
were sold to overseas authorities for thousands. The couple have | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
maintained the equipment could detect minute drugs and explosives. | :06:26. | :06:32. | |
But when the device was dismantled, it contained no functioning parts | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
and later tests proved he did not work. Today the jury at the Old | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
Bailey was told one of the handsets had been given to a policeman to | :06:41. | :06:48. | |
test. Graham Brodie QC said this was something a con artist would not do. | :06:48. | :06:58. | |
:06:58. | :07:05. | ||
Giving a device to a police officer Joan Tree. He described her as a | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
homely grandmother. He said the fences or fraud are committed out of | :07:09. | :07:15. | |
greed but this does not tally with the defendant. Her life is not one | :07:15. | :07:21. | |
of riches and excess. The cop or along with a third defendant accused | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
of fraud. Tomorrow the judge will begin summing up then the jury will | :07:26. | :07:34. | |
retire to consider its verdict. A mother from Northamptonshire is | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
planning to take legal action against a hospital after the death | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
of her daughter. Bricklin Harold died soon after being discharged | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
from Northampton and. Leanne Harrold says the hospital failed her child | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
and had called her a paranoid mother. Leanne Harrold and her | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
daughter Tia are having to adjust to life without Brooklyn. | :07:54. | :08:01. | |
She died just a month ago. Bricklin was a fighter. After being born with | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
a serious heart problems she spent most of her life in and out of | :08:05. | :08:11. | |
hospital. In May her mother took her to Northampton General. The hospital | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
wrongly suspected Brooklyn of having gastroenteritis but her mother was | :08:15. | :08:22. | |
not convinced. I said blood tests need doing because she has to have | :08:22. | :08:28. | |
them every time she is admitted because she is prone to infections. | :08:28. | :08:34. | |
But those tests were not done. Despite having a high temperature | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
and no improvement she was discharged. The next morning it | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
became clear she was getting worse and I was later she died of | :08:42. | :08:48. | |
septicaemia. Now the family say they want answers. Whether they kept her | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
in a few days or what, they could have done the care they needed to do | :08:52. | :08:59. | |
for her. She might still have had that little bit of a life chance | :08:59. | :09:09. | |
:09:09. | :09:14. | ||
that she would have pulled through. Northampton General Hospital say | :09:14. | :09:19. | |
they offered their sincere condolences to the family. A full | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
investigation into the circumstances is now underway and when results are | :09:23. | :09:29. | |
known they will discuss those with the family. | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
Detectives investigating the death of a woman whose car tyres had been | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
slashed say they have had seven or eight calls about the incident. The | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
death of Joanna Smith featured on the BBC's Crimewatch Roadshow. The | :09:42. | :09:48. | |
newlywed was on her way to work when she was involved in a fatal crash. | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
It was later discovered that her tyre had been vandalised overnight | :09:52. | :09:58. | |
along with several other cars parked nearby. It is an added punishment | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
and pain because we have to go through life that somebody cause | :10:02. | :10:12. | |
Joanna's death and have not been caught. Someone has -- has to have | :10:12. | :10:22. | |
:10:22. | :10:23. | ||
the courage to come forward. It has robbed me of my wife. | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
The new managing director of first Capital Connect has announced plans | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
for a better rail service. David Statham says the company will | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
deliver cleaner trains, better passenger information and a more | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
reliable timetable. He will also look to help network rail to improve | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
power supplies and signalling. Hundreds of thousands of | :10:43. | :10:48. | |
caterpillars have turned an avenue of cherry trees a ghostly white. | :10:48. | :10:54. | |
Fine webs have been spun around the trees by ermine moth caterpillars. | :10:54. | :11:00. |
