Crown Prosecution Service: Vincent Tabak 'was cunning and dishonest'

The 33-year-old Dutch engineer was convicted following a three-week trial at Bristol Crown Court.

The jury of six men and six women returned their verdict after four days of deliberation.

Tabak had pleaded guilty to manslaughter but had denied murdering the 25-year-old whose frozen snow covered body was discovered in a remote country lane by dog walkers on Christmas morning last year.

During the trial Tabak, who lived in the adjoining flat to Miss Yeates in Canynge Road, Clifton, claimed her death had been an accident.

He told the court Miss Yeates, whose boyfriend Greg Reardon was away for the weekend visiting relatives, had invited him in after spotting him passing her kitchen window on the evening of December 17 last year.
