UK convicts two men after 39 migrants found dead in truck
Two men have been convicted of killing 39 migrants who were found dead in a lorry container in Essex last year. Eamonn Harrison and Gheorghe Nica stood trial accused of the manslaughter of the Vietnamese nationals whose bodies were discovered at an industrial estate in Grays in October 2019. Temperatures in the unit had reached an "unbearable" 101 degrees Fahrenheit as the men, women and children, aged 15 to 44, were sealed inside for at least 12 hours, the court heard.
