James Witham and co-accused Joseph Peers bought alcohol and joked with a woman
CCTV footage shows the man who killed Ashley Dale smiling and buying beer less than four hours before shooting her dead in her home.
This footage shows Witham and Peers in Adisco Food and Wines at 7.54pm on August 20, where Witham purchases a box of Peroni beer and Peers also buys cans of cider. The pair had driven there in a grey Hyundai i30N car, later recorded on Leinster Road when Ashley was shot. At 6.47pm that evening, CCTV showed the men return to the flat in Pilch Lane. Detective Sergeant Graeme Sutton, under questioning from Alex Langhorn, junior counsel for the prosecution, told the jury Barry did not emerge again until after the shooting.
Later that evening, shortly before 6pm, Fitzgibbon and Peers are seen buying sweets and a pay-as-you-go top up at a Go Local store on Pilch Lane near the flat. DS Sutton said a new Nokia phone, attributed to Barry, activated a short time later for the first time.
