Teenage pair deny 'Brushy' murder
TWO teenagers have appeared at Leeds Crown Court accused of killing Calderdale man John 'Brushy' Greer.
Claire Hardy, 18, of Close Lea Way, Rastrick, and Reece Gledhill, 18, of no fixed address, deny murdering 60-year-old Mr Greer at his home in Arncliffe Crescent, Rastrick, in September last year.
When found, he had been strangled and had had his throat cut.
Mr Justice Blair adjourned their trial yesterday until Friday to enable Bryan Cox QC, prosecuting, to be present.
Mr Cox is currently involved in another trial at the court.
Hardy and Gledhill were remanded in custody.
