TRIAL: Mark Shaw was found dead at a house in Grange Villa last December
TWO teenagers are due to go on trial for the murder of a North-East dad.
Zoe Warren and Kieran Adey, both 19, are due to appear at Newcastle Crown Court accused of killing 29-year-old Mark Shaw, known as ‘Sharky’, before Christmas.
Mr Shaw was found dead in a bedroom of his house in Pine Street, Grange Villa, near Chester-le-Street, in County Durham, last December.
Miss Warren, of Hexham, Washington, and Mr Adey, of Queen Street, Grange Villa, have both denied murder.
The trial, expected to last eight to ten days, is expected to get underway today.
