The trial of Jamie Allan Clements-Earl continues at the Tamworth District Court regarding a violent group home invasion in Spring Ridge that occurred on March 5, 2024. Clements-Earl, 34, has pleaded not guilty to charges including aggravated break-and-enter, reckless wounding in company, destruction of property by fire, and assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

Earlier testimony from victim Sandra Stewart involved defense questioning regarding her police statements and drug use, leading her to ask the jury, “Why does it feel like I’m on trial here?” Witness Angus Malcolm Fuller also testified that he felt pressured to sign police documentation, stating, “I was told I could not get [the details] changed, and if I did not agree I would have to plead not guilty and go to trial.”

Witness Grant Thomas Peel testified that the events were preceded by a group of locals pursuing a vehicle they believed was connected to a series of local break-ins, and that he encountered Clements-Earl at the Royal Hotel in Spring Ridge following that pursuit.

In recent developments, witness Joanne Claire Catford-Woods testified regarding alleged threats made by Peel months before the incident. Catford-Woods alleged that Peel stated he could fly over the target house in a glider and drop a ‘Molotov cocktail’ without being detected. She further testified that Peel had previously attempted to light a fire at a relative’s house in September 2023.
