[Justice for Rikki Neave after nearly
30 years: Man, 41, is found GUILTY of schoolboy's 1994
murder when he was aged 13
after DNA provided 'definitive' proof
he killed six-year-old and left his
naked body in 'star pose' in woodland
Jury convicted James Watson of
killing six-year-old, who was found strangled
and stripped naked in woodland
His mother Ruth was put on trial for his
murder in 1996 but was found not guilty,
leading to long hunt for killer
A new cold case probe in 2015 saw
sophisticated DNA analysis of Rikki's clothes
identify Watson as murderer]
[The majority verdict comes after
41-year-old Watson
(pictured here in a court sketch) -
who
would have been 13 at the time of
the killing - stood trial at
the Old Bailey in London]
[Today, jurors finally delivered their verdict.]
