A “socially vulnerable” woman died after three brothers performed WWE and Ultimate Fighting Championship wrestling moves on her, including “rainbow flips, T-Bones and Cliff-hangers”, it was alleged today.

Delyth Andrews, 54, had been attacked for more than seven hours at her home in Ramsgate after the brothers claimed to have smoked legal highs, a jury heard.

The four foot 11 inch Ms Andrews – who was bi-polar – weighed less than eight stone and was found injured on her bed which had its wooden slats smashed during the attack, a jury at Canterbury Crown Court was told.

Prosecutor Philip Bennetts QC claimed Ms Andrews - described by neighbours as ‘too trusting’ - later died from the injuries in December 2015, which had been inflicted during the assault.

The Knight brothers, Scott, 23, Adam, 20, and Joshua, 19, all of Lorina Road, have denied murder.

Joshua and Adam offered guilty pleas to the lesser charge of manslaughter.

Mr Bennetts told how Ms Andrews had got to know the brothers’ mother Elaine Morley, who was homeless and she invited her to move into her semi-detached home in Lorina Road.

“Joshua moved in as well and as time progressed Elaine Morley’s other sons, Scott and Adam also moved into Ms Andrews’ home.

“Elaine Morley and her sons dominated Delyth Andrews’ home. Joshua Knight took a handbag containing Ms Andrews’ Disability Living Allowance and spent the money," he claimed.

He told how Ms Andrews had for many years spoken by phone to a friend Patricia Hodson each evening.

Mr Bennetts said the calls gradually stopped and Ms Morley began answering the phone saying “Elaine’s residence” and the family were “noisy, anti-social, playing loud music which was going all times of the day and night," he told the jury.

The prosecutor said by the Summer of 2015 the brothers had smashed the living room, punching holes in a door and Ms Morley put her foot through a glass panel.

Neighbours described Ms Morley and her sons as “aggressive and intimidating” who had bullied Ms Andrews.

Mr Bennetts told how on one occasion a neighbour saw Ms Andrews standing in her living room as one of the brothers pulled down her trousers saying: “Look at the div now”.

In November 2015, the emergency services were called after Ms Andrews was found lying injured on her back in bed, complaining: “They were jumping all over me”.

Mr Bennetts added: “An X-ray revealed she had multiple rib fractures, fractures to her sternum and her pelvis.”

It was then she claimed she had been controlled by the brothers who had taken her TV and jewellery before performing body slams on her.

Joshua is alleged to have told police he and his brothers had performed World Wrestling Entertainment moves on her.

Scott told officers he had been out selling things to buy money to buy ‘spice’ – a legal high.

The prosecutor said: “He told police how Joshua and Adam had begun the assault, jumping on Ms Andrews and rainbow flipping her onto her bed.

“He told officers that this had broken some of the wooden slats and his brothers encouraged him to join in.

“He described the assault continuing for hours, from 8pm or 9pm through to 3 am with the brothers following her wherever she went in the house.

“He said the moves he and his brothers performed, saying they jumped onto her from the sofa and did rainbow flips, T-Bones, Cliffhangers and FU’s," he added.

Scott told police “his mother was out during the assault but observed that she didn’t care as she wasn’t really Ms Andrews’ friend and didn’t even pay rent to stay in the house," he told the jury.

The brothers were initially charged with causing grievous bodily harm with intent but Ms Andrews’ condition deteriorated by the end of November 2015 and she died on December 2015.

A pathologist concluded her death was as a result of the effects of the injuries she had received during the assault," it was claimed.

The trial continues.
