Brenda Cross was beaten to death in the basement of an antiques shop, Anno Domini, in Pimlico Road, Chelsea on 9 September 1991.
The owner of the shop, a retired 68-year-old actor, was tried for her murder but acquitted. The judge directed the jury to acquit the shop owner after hearing the prosecution’s case, stating that the evidence showed that it was inherently improbable that the shop owner was the murderer.
