'KILLED BY HIS PALS'

3-22-2007 United Kingdom:
FOUR neighbours tortured a disabled man then drowned him because they thought he was a paedophile, a court heard.

Sean Miles, 37, who had an IQ of just 50, was stripped, slashed with a knife and battered with a golf club last May.

He was then marched to the river where he was drowned by the gang he thought were his friends.

Edward Doyle, 34, Terry McMasters, 24, and sisters Tracey, 36, and Karen Fathers, 35, of Littlemoor, Oxford, all deny murder.

Sean's carers said: "He was a sweet man who never did any harm."

The trial at Oxford crown court continues. ..more.. by Mirror.uk.co
