Mr Eaton asked Ms Clinton whether she had heard any whispering between the defendant and his mate as she drove. Discussed potential suspectsTwo days after allegedly stabbing Amber-Rose, Skantha met the victim's mum and gave her flowers and a card. A decision was made, Ms Clinton said, to visit Ms Rush in the hotel at which she was staying and the items were purchased on the way. At home, Ms Clinton said her ex-partner seemed in “irritated, almost indignant” mood and was receiving numerous alerts on his phone. Ms Clinton said Skantha was drinking sauvignon blanc “pretty much non-stop” by the end of their relationship, swigging from the bottle.
