AFTER several hours of deliberation on its verdict in the case of a Grays woman charged with killing her mother a jury will return to Basildon Crown Court on Monday in an attempt to reach a decision.
After five days of hearing evidence in the case of Cheryl Banks, 60, of Lenmore Avenue, who has admitted killing her mother but denies murder claiming the act was manslaughter by diminished responsibility, the jury retired to pass judgement today (Friday, 25 February).
