VAN DRIVER ADMITS MANSLAUGHTER OF MUM-OF-THREE
ABOVE: Karina Menzies
He also admitted seven charges of attempted murder, GBH and actual bodily harm charges and dangerous driving.
A VAN driver yesterday admitted the manslaughter of mum-of-three Karina Menzies, but he denied her murder.
Matthew Tvrdon mowed down the 31-year-old as
she walked home from school with daughters Tiana, three, and Ellie,
eight, last October.
The girls were taken to hospital with 11 other injured pedestrians.
Tvrdon
pleaded guilty to Karina’s manslaughter on the grounds of diminished
responsibility after Cardiff Crown Court heard he was suffering from
paranoid schizophrenia.
He also admitted seven charges of attempted murder, GBH and actual bodily harm charges and dangerous driving.
A decision on whether he will go to trial will be made before June 5.
