A York woman has appeared in court on a murder charge today (Monday).

Rachel Fulstow, 37, of Andrew Drive, Huntington, appeared at Manchester Crown Court via prison video link.

She denied the murder of an electrician who was gunned down and subjected to an acid attack.

The body of Liam Smith, 38, was found at the bottom of his driveway on Kilburn Drive in Shevington, Wigan, in the early evening of 24 November last year.

Fulstow and Michael Hillier, 39, of Ecclesall Road, Sheffield, both pleaded not guilty to his murder.

Fulstow is expected to enter a plea to an additional charge of perverting the course of justice when she appears for a further case management hearing for the pair on 15 May.

In January, Mr Smith’s family said he was a “devoted” and “adoring” father to his two boys, aged 15 and 11, and was a “dearly loved son, brother, uncle, cousin, grandson and friend”.
