Lord Beckett says jurors in the murder trial should not speculate or be swayed by media coverage.
A judge has told the jury in the Emma Caldwell murder trial to base their verdicts only on the evidence.
She died from compression of the neck and a pathologist previously told the trail that manual strangulation had been the most likely cause.The judge started directing the jury by highlighting that victims of sexual offences react to their experiences in different ways. Earlier, defence advocate Ronnie Renucci KC suggested that prosecution witnesses had been influenced by "the power, lure and influence of television."
And he said there was no blood, DNA, fibres, body fluids, fingerprints or CCTV linking him to her death.
