A security guard, Gavin Plumb, from Harlow in Essex, is on trial for allegedly planning to kidnap, rape, and murder TV presenter Holly Willoughby. His lawyer argues that while his online comments were “vile and misogynistic,” they were made by a “sad, lonely” individual who never intended to carry out the crimes. The defense claims that the “fun” for Plumb was in the planning, not the execution. The trial continues as the prosecution and defense present their cases.
