As I have previously discussed, Stephen ‘Nic’ Seddon has been accused on murdering his parents to obtain his £230,000 inheritance. Now, the court has heard testimony from a family behavioral manager that met with Mr. Seddon to discuss his son’s disruptive behavior. At the meeting, the manager told the court that Mr. Seddon told him that he was planning to use “a large inheritance to help his son.” In particular, the manager said that “‘[h]e said he was due to come into some money and he’d be able to sort (his son) out. Later on he said the money was due to come from an inheritance, that it was a lot of money and that he would use it to reward (his son) if he behaved at school.”
