Man who was living off-grid to be sentenced for murder of dogwalker
A man who murdered a grandmother on her morning dog walk in a 'vicious and brutal attack' while he was living off-grid to avoid recall to prison is to be sentenced. Roy Barclay, 56, subjected 57-year-old Anita Rose to 'numerous kicks, stamps and blows' as she walked her springer spaniel Bruce in Brantham, Suffolk, on July 24 2024. The mother of six was found by passers-by but died in hospital four days later. Barclay, who denied murder but was found guilty following an earlier trial at Ipswich Crown Court, is due to be sentenced at the same court on Wednesday. Ms Rose's eldest daughter, who gave her name as Jess, said after Barclay's conviction last month that 'criminals cannot remain at large'. 'There's too much at stake and our communities need protecting,' she said. She continued: 'We need to make sure that our communities are safe and that people are monitored, that criminals are taken back to prison when they break the terms of their probation.' Barclay had previously been convicted and jailed over a 2015 attack on a pensioner. Prosecutors said this bore similarities to the attack on Ms Rose. Barclay had been released from prison in February 2020 but had not been living at a fixed address. He had been wanted on recall at the time of his attack on Ms Rose over a breach of his licence conditions. It is understood that the Probation Service issued a recall notice for Barclay following a breach of his licence conditions. Suffolk Police said there would be a review of information-sharing processes. Judge Martyn Levett warned Barclay, after jurors returned their guilty verdict: 'The sentence is one that inevitably is going to be life in prison, and the length of it is going to be very lengthy.' Prosecutor Christopher Paxton KC earlier told the court that Barclay 'lived mostly in the countryside, wandering the fields and lanes, sleeping in various makeshift camps'. 'He lived off-grid because for two years, Roy Barclay had been unlawfully at large,' said Mr Paxton. 'He had been on the run trying to avoid the police and authorities to try and avoid being recalled back to prison.' Jurors were told that Barclay had previously pleaded guilty, over a separate incident in 2015, to grievous bodily harm with intent over an attack on an 82-year-old man in Walton-on-the-Naze, Essex. The pensioner, Leslie Gunfield, had told Barclay that he would inform security about him going through rubbish bins at a Co-op supermarket, the court heard. Mr Gunfield was left with serious injuries to his head and required 10 titanium plates for fractures he suffered after being attacked by Barclay. He was found with a dog lead wrapped around his foot, which the prosecution said was similar to the way Ms Rose's body was found, with a dog lead 'tightly' wrapped around her leg.

Prince Harry reprimanded for crisis at charity
The Duke of Sussex has lost his battle for control of the charity he set up in his mother's memory as a watchdog criticised him for his part in a 'damaging' bullying row. Sentebale, which Prince Harry co-founded in 2006, was thrown into crisis in March when Dr Sophie Chandauka, its chairman, made claims of harassment and misogyny, triggering the resignations of the Prince as patron and several trustees. A Charity Commission investigation into the affair has found problems with Sentebale's governance and rebuked 'all parties' involved for allowing the spat to play out in public, but ruled that Dr Chandauka and the current board could remain in place, meaning she has emerged victorious. The Prince is said to be 'utterly devastated' by what he regards as a 'hostile takeover' of the charity, and has signalled that his split from Sentebale is now permanent. The Duke hit back at the commission's findings, saying its investigation had fallen 'troublingly short' and that the 'consequences of [Dr Chandauka's] actions will not be borne by her but by the children who rely on Sentebale's support'. It is a bitter blow for the Prince, who set up the charity with Prince Seeiso of Lesotho to continue the work of Harry's late mother, Diana, Princess of Wales, by supporting children with HIV/Aids. The row began when Dr Chandauka was asked to step down following disagreements about fundraising, including accusations that she had spent £500,000 on consultants to find wealthy donors in the US, which she denied. She responded by suing the charity and reporting it to the Charity Commission, alleging bullying, harassment, misogyny and 'misogynoir' – discrimination against black women. That triggered the resignations of Prince Harry, Prince Seeiso and several trustees. The commission said in a statement: 'The regulator has criticised all parties to the dispute for allowing it to play out publicly, and further concluded that the then trustees' failure to resolve disputes internally severely impacted the charity's reputation and risked undermining public trust in charities more generally.' The commission said it had found no evidence of widespread or systematic bullying or harassment, including misogyny or misogynoir, but it 'acknowledged the strong perception of ill treatment felt by a number of parties to the dispute and the impact this may have had on them personally'. Harry carries on the spat In a statement, a spokesman for the Duke said: 'Sentebale has been a deeply personal and transformative mission for Prince Harry, established to serve some of the most vulnerable children in Lesotho and Botswana.' In his response to the report, the Duke continued the public spat by describing Sentebale as a 'once brilliant charity' that had helped more than 100,000 children during his time as patron. He said he would 'now focus on finding new ways to continue supporting the children of Lesotho and Botswana'. A friend of the Prince said he could not now see any way the Prince could ever return to Sentebale. After carrying out a compliance investigation into Sentebale, the watchdog issued it with a regulatory action plan 'to address governance weaknesses' after finding that there had been 'mismanagement in the administration of the charity'. It did not escalate the investigation to a statutory inquiry, meaning Dr Chandauka will be allowed to address the issues with a largely new board of trustees whom the commission said had been 'validly appointed'. In a television interview, Dr Chandauka complained about her treatment by Prince Harry, citing an incident at the end of a charity polo match in Miami last year. Television footage showed the Duchess of Sussex apparently asking her to switch places from her position next to the Duke during the prizegiving. Dr Chandauka had to duck under a trophy in an awkward moment that prompted questions from the media about the Duchess's behaviour. Credit: Social media She said earlier this year: 'Prince Harry asked me to issue some sort of a statement in support of the Duchess and I said I wouldn't. Not because I didn't care about the Duchess, but because I knew what would happen if I did so, and because we cannot be an extension of the Sussexes.' She said that as tensions between the Sussexes and the Royal family grew, it became harder to raise funds for the charity and she had been a victim of 'this unleashing of the Sussex machine'. The commission found no evidence of over-reach by the Duke of Sussex as patron of the charity, but was 'critical of the charity's lack of clarity in delegations to the chair which allowed for misunderstandings to occur'. This lack of clarity around roles, and around internal policies, had exacerbated tensions, which culminated in the dispute. In a series of criticisms, the commission found that the delegation of certain powers to Dr Chanduaka was 'a confusing, convoluted and poorly governed process'; that the then-trustees did not have a proper complaints process in place; and that it was 'not satisfied that public statements made to the media and public criticism made in television interviews were conducted in a way that served the charity's best interests'. In future, it said, the charity should have a clearly defined patron role set out in writing. The commission found that: 'All the charity's then-trustees contributed to a missed opportunity to resolve issues which led to the dispute. The regulator observed that strategic and financial difficulties that had emerged for the charity following the Covid-19 pandemic contributed to the tensions that arose.' As well as improving internal processes, Sentebale was told of 'the importance of the trustees securing sufficient funding to enable the charity to deliver for its beneficiaries'. David Holdsworth, the chief executive of the commission, said in his report that: 'Sentebale's problems played out in the public eye, enabling a damaging dispute to harm the charity's reputation, risk overshadowing its many achievements, and jeopardising the charity's ability to deliver for the very beneficiaries it was created to serve. 'Passion for a cause is the bedrock of volunteering and charity, delivering positive impact for millions of people here at home and abroad every day. However, in the rare cases when things go wrong, it is often because that very passion has become a weakness rather than a strength. 'This case highlights what can happen when there are gaps in governance and policies critical to charities' ability to deliver for their cause. As a result, we have issued the charity a regulatory action plan to make needed improvements and rectify findings of mismanagement. 'Moving forward I urge all parties not to lose sight of those who rely on the charity's services. The current trustees must now make improvements and ensure the charity focuses on delivering for those it exists to serve.' Sentebale's latest accounts, for the year ended August 31 2023, show that its total income was £3.4 million and it spent £3.78m. The Prince donated £1.2m from the proceeds of his autobiography, Spare, which was published in 2023. Solve the daily Crossword

Artificial intelligence rollout for police forces to investigate grooming gangs
Artificial intelligence tools which have saved thousands of hours in investigations will be rolled out to all police forces to tackle grooming gangs. Officers across all 43 forces in England and Wales will gain access to the investigative technology as part of a £426,000 funding boost for the Tackling Organised Exploitation (TOEX) programme. The intelligence and technical experts support forces investigating complex cases such as organised exploitation of modern slavery, county lines and child sex abuse. Some 13 forces currently have access to their apps, which are said to have been used 12,500 times – saving more than £20 million and 16,000 hours for investigators. The expansion, announced by the Home Office, comes after Baroness Casey recommended a national police operation to review cold cases, in her rapid audit on grooming gangs published in June. Operation Beaconport has since been established, led by the National Crime Agency, and will be reviewing more than 1,200 closed cases of child sexual exploitation. Safeguarding minister Jess Phillips said: 'The sexual exploitation of children by grooming gangs is one of the most horrific crimes and we must punish perpetrators, provide justice for victims and survivors, and protect today's children from harm. 'Baroness Casey flagged the need to upgrade police information systems to improve investigations and safeguard children at risk. Today we are investing in these critical tools.' The technology being rolled out can translate large amounts of text in foreign languages from mobile phones seized by police, and analyse a mass of digital data to find patterns and relationships between suspects. NCA director general Graeme Biggar said providing reassurance to victims and their families has been a main focus of the national policing operation since June. He added: 'We must and will ensure their voices are heard and collectively, we will restore confidence that the law enforcement response to child sexual exploitation is without fear or favour, is evidence based and not undermined by fears of inflaming community tensions.' The Home Secretary has also written to police forces to make sure they are collecting ethnicity data as recommended by Baroness Casey. The crossbench peer's report found the lack of data showing the ethnicity and nationality of sex offenders in grooming gangs is 'a major failing over the last decade or more'. The audit found that officials had dodged the issue of ethnicity among the groups of sex offenders for fear of being called racist, but there were enough convictions of Asian men 'to have warranted closer examination'. The Government has launched a national inquiry into the abuse and further details are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
