A TEENAGER has appeared in court charged with the murder of a 14-year-old girl who was found dead on the day of her parent's 25th wedding anniversary.
Thomas Davis, 18, appeared before magistrates after the body of Sarah Robson was found in a field just 400 yards from her home in Cramlington, Northumberland.
The defendant, of Deneside, Seghill, Northumberland, entered no plea today at South East Northumberland Magistrates' Court and he was remanded in custody to appear before Newcastle Crown Court on February 20.
Sarah's fully-clothed body was discovered by police after her brothers Ian, 18, and Chris, 20, searched the area around the family home in Reedswood Crescent on Monday evening when she failed to return.
Her parents, John and Lynn, had celebrated their silver wedding anniversary that day.
