Construction company director denies manslaughter allegation
Edward Day (E J Construction T/A) is facing a manslaughter trial following the death of workman Mark Wilkin who drowned when a dumper truck fell into a lake in 2007.
The death occurred during redevelopment of a quarry involving major earth moving work. The prosecution allege that ”the risk of the dumper overturning into deep water is a great one. There is a real chance of a dumper going over the edge. That is exactly what happened to the unfortunate Mark Wilkin.”
The trial continues. Further detail.
