THE trial of Stuart Hazell at the Old Bailey has entered its fourth day. Yesterday jurors heard evidence from a range of people, from prison officers who had contact with Hazell during his time at Belmarsh prison to the pathologist who examined Tia Sharp's body. Hazell, 37, told prison officer Warren Fegan: "I'm not like Ian Huntley". He claimed Tia's death was "nothing sexual" and that she had accidentally fallen down the stairs and broken her neck. However, he told another prison officer, Paul Leahy, that police should "look at his neighbours". The window cleaner claimed a Somalian couple who lived nearby may have killed Tia and moved the body into his loft. In the afternoon, Dr Ashley Fegan-Earl told the court he found no evidence of an accidental death, including no injuries to Tia's head or neck. The pathologist said suffocation had been the "most likely" cause of death. For live updates from our reporter at court Rachel Millard, see below. Today's proceedings resume at 10.30am.
