Mother of Cody Fisher murderer tells jury that online searches about murder were not connected to her son
The mother of Cody Fisher's murderer told a jury online searches about the Boxing Day 2022 killing were not connected to her son but because it 'was a high profile case'.
Jahzeen Carpenter, 39, of Himley Court, Dudley, is standing trial at Wolverhampton Crown Court charged with assisting an offender (murder) to evade arrest by police.
Carpenter's sister Nadine Taylor, 45, from the same address, was also charged with the same offence but is not standing trial due to ill health.
When asked why her sister was searching online for articles about Cody Fisher's murder at Crane nightclub and for references of her son, Carpenter said: "I cannot comment on what she was doing because I was not with her at the time, just like she could not comment what I was doing."
When asked why they had read articles about the stabbing at Crane nightclub, she said: "It was a high profile case. Everybody was talking about it."
