TikTok prankster Mizzy arrested ‘on suspicion of perverting course of justice’
TikTok prankster Mizzy has been arrested on suspicion of perverting the course of justice, a court has heard. The star, real name Bacari-Bronze O’Garro, appeared at Stratford Magistrates’ Court in east London on Thursday morning after he was accused of posting videos on social media without the consent of the people featured in them. He was due to stand trial on four counts of breaching a criminal behaviour order but his defence lawyer Paul Lennon applied to adjourn the hearing after telling the court that O’Garro had been arrested on October 16 on suspicion of perverting the course of justice. O’Garro’s main witness in the case, who was due to give evidence on Thursday, was also arrested and both were released on bail under the condition that they do not contact each other “directly or indirectly”, Mr Lennon explained. Without his evidence, Mr Lennon said, O’Garro would not be able to have a “fair trial”. He told the court: “It was hoped that the sole witness in his (O’Garro) favour would be able to attend court to provide evidence in support of the defence. “That is no longer possible. “Last week Mr O’Garro and his first and only witness were arrest on suspicion of perverting the course of justice. “Both were released on bail with the condition not to contact each other directly or indirectly. “Had he (the witness) not been arrested on a very serious allegation he would have been here to give evidence on behalf of Mr O’Garro. “It was hoped as of yesterday that the matter would not be proceeded with. “Instead, he (O’Garro) was bailed until January 2024.” Judge Matthew Bone rejected the defence’s submission and chose to proceed with the trial, telling the court: “The witness’s unavailability was known on or before October 16. “I am not prepared to adjourn this case. “The trial will proceed today.” O’Garro’s case was previously adjourned at the same court as he was accused of engaging in further “criminal activities”, according to a joint submission by prosecution and defence lawyers at a hearing in September. The trial will proceed later on Thursday.

Sky News faces backlash after reporting Holly Willoughby’s This Morning exit from war zone
Sky News has been criticised by viewers for reporting the breaking news of Holly Willoughby's exit from ITV's This Morning live from a war zone, where they'd been covering the Israel-Hamas conflict. After presenting the daytime programme for 14 years, the 42-year-old posted a statement on her social media where announced she would not be returning to the show. Sky News presenter Mark Austin has been reporting live on the ground in Jerusalem about the Israel-Hamas conflict when coverage suddenly changed to the news on Willoughby leaving. “Let’s get some news away from here now,” Austin said, from on a hillside at night time with the landscape of the country's capital in the background. “Presenter Holly Willoughby has told ITV that she will not return to host This Morning." He added: “She has not returned to the show since a man was charged last week with an alleged plot to kidnap and murder her.” Then Sky News studio correspondent Shamaan Freeman-Powell also added more details to the coverage surrounding the TV presenter's departure. After this, viewers took to social media to criticise the broadcaster's choice of announcing this showbiz news from a war zone, calling it a "parody," "tasteless," and "utterly bizarre." In her farewell statement to the Willoughby wrote: "To everyone who has ever worked on the show over the years, thank you so so much. This is such a difficult goodbye, you are incredible and I forever will be proud of what we’ve done together. Thank you to everyone at ITV for being supportive. To every guest who has sat on our sofa, thank you." "Most of all, thank you to the wonderful viewers. You’ve been so loyal, so supportive and the very best company every day. "Richard and Judy said ‘we only look after this show, it will always belong to the viewers’. "It’s been an honour to just be part of its story and I know this story has many chapters left to go... I will miss you all so much." Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.
