VICTIM'S WIFE TELLS OF LOST FUTURE AS SIBLING JAILED

- By ROD MINCHIN

A DERBYSHIRE man has been jailed for two years for killing his brother during a drunken fight.

Ben Starr, 35, inflicted a single fatal blow to his brother Lee at a moto-cross event in Swindon last August.

Lee Starr, 38, suffered a fatal head injury at the Foxhill motocross event in Upper Wanborough and died later in hospital.

At a previous hearing Ben Starr, of Woodside Avenue, Ripley, pleaded guilty to manslaughter after asking for a “Goodyear Indication” from a judge - the maximum sentence he could receive.

At a sentencing hearing last Thursday Judge Peter Blair KC, Recorder of Bristol, jailed him for two years.
