Becky Watts Jury Shown 'Murder' Scene

Jurors in the Becky Watts trial have visited her bedroom where she was allegedly murdered, as well as the spot where her dismembered body parts were found.

They were taken on a three-hour visit to the key locations in Bristol to enable them to get a better idea of how she died and where she was then hidden.

The 16-year-old girl vanished from her home on 19 February this year, sparking a major police search across the city.

It is the prosecution's case that her stepbrother, Nathan Matthews, and his girlfriend Shauna Hoare suffocated Becky in her bedroom, loaded her body into their car and drove to their home in Cotton Mill Lane and then dismembered her body.

The police search ended on 2 March when officers discovered multiple body parts hidden in suitcases and bags in a shed at a nearby property at Barton Court.

Jury members were also shown the bathroom at Cotton Mill Lane where it is alleged Matthews and Hoare dismembered Becky's body with a power tool.

They then walked the short distance to the property at Barton Court where the body parts were found in a shed.

That shed has since been removed from the backyard and replaced by the people currently living there.

The judge, legal teams and police officers accompanied jurors on the visit.

Becky's bedroom was similar to any other 16-year-old girl's personal space.

There were a selection of perfumes and nail varnish on the shelf, and a collection of shoes and trainers was stored away neatly below.

Next to a pink wardrobe there were train tickets left on the side next to a music speaker.

Hanging up was a shirt signed by friends - the type that is often a souvenir of a final day of a school term. Among the various friendly messages written in marker pen one said: "Good luck Becky".

This is the room where the prosecution say Becky's life ended.

The judge and the legal teams agreed that it was only by seeing the bedroom for themselves could the jury could fully understand what really happened.

Matthews denies murder and conspiracy to kidnap, but admits killing his stepsister.

He has pleaded guilty to perverting the course of justice, preventing burial of a corpse and possessing a prohibited weapon.

Hoare denies murder, conspiracy to kidnap, perverting the course of justice, preventing burial of a corpse and possessing a prohibited weapon.

Two other men, Donovan Demetrius and James Ireland, both deny a charge of assisting an offender.
