Sentencing of teen who killed sister, 15, at caravan park adjourned for a second time
manchestereveningnews.co.ukA 19-year-old who confessed to killing his younger sister at a north Wales caravan park will be sentenced in the summer following a second courtroom delay.
Matthew Selby, from Ashton-under-Lyne, had been due to be sentenced in March and then April for the manslaughter of sister Amanda Selby, but now the hearing has been put back to June.
The teenager had originally been charged with murdering his sister at Ty Mawr Caravan Park in Towyn. But in February he admitted to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility when he appeared before Mold Crown Court.
Amanda Selby, 15, from Tameside, died at the caravan site in near Abergele on July 31 last year. Her brother Matthew, 19, of Windermere Crescent, Ashton-under-Lyne, had been due to stand trial in February until he pleaded guilty to manslaughter.
