In a tragic turn of events, two men have been found guilty of causing the death of Jack Jermy-Doyle in a street fight two years ago. The court heard how Jake Parkinson, 22, and Jak Fairclough, 29, both from Preston, Lancashire, encountered Jermy-Doyle on a night out in August 2022. What started as a brief conversation quickly turned violent when Parkinson delivered a punch to Jermy-Doyle's stomach, followed by a blow from Fairclough that caused him to fall to the ground and hit his head on the pavement. This ultimately led to his untimely death just two days later.
During the trial at Preston Crown Court, Fairclough pleaded guilty to manslaughter in August 2023, while Parkinson had initially denied the charge but was later found guilty yesterday. They are both awaiting sentencing. The court was told that Jermy-Doyle had been out drinking with his friend Robert Jones before encountering the defendants in the early hours of the morning. Witnesses also testified that Parkinson and Fairclough had been displaying aggressive behavior throughout the night at various pubs.
Shockingly, after the incident, the defendants were heard running off into the night, shouting "Who wants it?" This callous behavior was further evidenced by the frantic messages exchanged between Parkinson and his friends after local media began reporting on Jermy-Doyle's injuries. In one message, Parkinson even joked about going to jail, accompanied by a snoozing emoji. Another message showed him considering leaving town for Blackpool before ultimately deciding to turn himself in. One of his friends even chastised him, calling him "a very stupid boy."
Fairclough, on the other hand, had already pleaded guilty at an earlier hearing in August 2023. When he was arrested at a club 24 hours after the assault, Parkinson expressed regret over the extent of Jermy-Doyle's injuries, claiming that he did not intend to cause harm. However, senior crown prosecutor Katie Marsden of CPS North West stressed that their actions were inexcusable and had fatal consequences for Jermy-Doyle. She also reminded the public that one punch can have deadly consequences and extended her sympathies to Jermy-Doyle's loved ones.
