At the Old Bailey, the court learned that Marvin Dickson, who was last seen alive with Dante Forrest, was found dead in a bath for ten days. Evidence showed he died from significant blunt force trauma to his head, and a blood-stained pizza box was discovered at the scene, suggesting his death occurred shortly after they were last seen together.
Prosecutor William Emlyn Jones KC detailed the events leading to the discovery of Marvin Dickson's body, emphasizing the substantial blunt force trauma that led to his death. The condition of the bath, noted as not having been utilized for bathing for a long time, raised further questions about the circumstances surrounding the death.
Dante Forrest appeared via video-link, confirming only his identity, as he faces murder charges for the death of Marvin Dickson. The hearing was brief, with a plea date set for December 16, while he remains in custody.
The last known sighting of Marvin Dickson was captured on CCTV on September 10, showing him walking with Dante Forrest and carrying a takeaway pizza. This critical timeframe is essential in piecing together the timeline of events leading up to his tragic death.
