The trial of five people accused of murdering two teenage boys at a house party in Milton Keynes will take place in November.

Two 17-year-olds, Dom Anseh and Ben Gilliam-Rice, died from stab wounds after a house party in Emerson Valley last October.

Clayton Barker, 19, Charlie Chandler and Earl Bevans, both 22, along with two 16 year old boys, who can not be named because of their ages, have all been charged with two counts of murder.

All five have pleaded not guilty to murder.

Thames Valley Police have confirmed the trial will begin on Monday, November 2, at Luton Crown Court, and is listed for up to eight weeks.
