«Breaking News» Paedophile's friend slit the man’s throat after he confessed to abusing six-year-old

A paedophile's throat was cut by his drinking partner after he bragged about sexually abusing a six-year-old, a court has heard.

Christopher McMahon, 48, left David Potter, 50, for dead face down on the floor of his flat in Tooting, south London, after repeatedly stabbing him in the early hours of August 21 last year, the Old Bailey was told.

Mr Potter, who had convictions for sex offences against children, was found dead five days later after police forced entry to his property when a friend became concerned.

The jury was told that after the incident, McMahon went to his on-off partner's house still soaked in his alleged victim's blood and told her: 'I've done it.'

Prosecutor Sarah Whitehouse QC told jurors: 'Mr McMahon said he had slit a man's throat and indeed he had.'

Christopher McMahon, 48, left David Potter, 50, for dead face down on the floor of his flat in Tooting, south London, after repeatedly stabbing him in the early hours of August 21 last year, the Old Bailey (pictured)  was told.

She said McMahon told his partner the man was a paedophile who told him he had molested a six-year-old.

'Mr McMahon admits he was the person who stabbed Mr Potter to death,' Ms Whitehouse told jurors.

'The question for you will be why Mr McMahon did that.'

The court heard McMahon had been in possession of a Stanley knife at his girlfriend's flat a few days before the alleged murder.

On the night of August 20, he was drinking at Mr Potter's small studio apartment above a convenience store, where he lived alone, while another man left in the early hours of the following day.

'There is no doubt that in the early hours of that morning Mr McMahon stabbed Mr Potter repeatedly,' Ms Whitehouse said.#

'The reason I can say that there is no doubt about that is because Mr McMahon has now admitted it. 

'His clothing and shoes were covered in Mr Potter's blood and the trainers he was wearing left footprints in blood all over Mr Potter's flat.

'After stabbing Mr Potter in the early hours of that morning, Mr McMahon left him dead or dying face down on the floor of the flat.'

Police officers found Mr Potter in a pool of blood when they forced entry to his home on March 26.

A post-mortem examination found he had a number of stab wounds to the neck, the most severe of which had gone through to the spine and cut numerous blood vessels including the jugular vein.

Mr Potter also had defence wounds to his left arm and hands, the court was told. 

Jurors heard the pair 'did not appear to be particularly close or longstanding friends' but were 'bonded by an interest in alcohol'.

Mr Potter was last seen alive shortly before 11pm on 20 March heading back up to his flaton Tooting High Street from the convenience store below.

McMahon, clutching a few cans of beer, was captured on CCTV following him up there around 20 minutes later.  

Another man, who has refused to assist the investigation, left the apartment shortly before McMahon did, the court was told.

McMahon's partner heard 'banging on the door and shouting at her to let him in', jurors heard. 

Jurors heard the woman told McMahon that he was 'covered in blood' and asked if he had 'hurt someone'.

'Yes, I have hurt a paedophile,' McMahon allegedly replied.

The killer then took some drugs before going to bed, warning his partner he would 'tell the you were there' should she phone the police.

After he left the next morning, jurors heard his partner was visited by her son and his girlfriend and she told them all about what had happened the night before, prompting the girlfriend to call 999.

Two officers later seized McMahon's bloody clothes but by that stage they were unaware anything had happened to Mr Potter.

His body was not discovered until 26 March when a concerned pal rang the police having not seen him for a couple of days.

McMahon was eventually arrested two months later when forensic tests proved a link between the victim and the bloody clothes.

Ms Whitehouse told jurors McMahon 'admits he was the person who stabbed Mr Potter to death' but added that 'the question for you is why he did that'.

McMahon, of no fixed address, denies murder.

The trial continues.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
