Taxi Driver Denies Murdering Becky Godden

A taxi driver has denied killing a 20-year-old prostitute whose body was found in a shallow grave eight years after she vanished. Christopher Halliwell pleaded not guilty to the murder of Becky Godden between 1 January, 2003 and 4 April, 2008, at a plea hearing at Bristol Crown Court on Thursday. The father-of-three, who previously lived in Swindon, was charged by Wiltshire Police on 30 March.
