FIVE people were due to appear in court today (Wednesday), charged with helping a young man convicted of a murder in Kingshurst.
Callum Lees was stabbed in the neck during a house party in Hopwas Grove, Kingshurst in 2017.
He was found collapsed in nearby Haselour Road and later died from the wound.
Last August, James Atherley, 21, was convicted of murdering the 20-year-old and was sentenced to 26 years behind bars.
This week police confirmed that three men and two women had been charged with assisting an offender and were set to appear at Birmingham Magistrates.
The accused have been named as:
Kelly Palmer, 40, from Letitia Avenue, Solihull
Zac Palmer, 22, from Fallowfield Avenue, Solihull
Kelly Casey, 38, from Letitia Avenue, Solihull
Cian Murphy, 22, from Colesbourne Road, Solihull
