A man who admitted to killing his 15-year-old sister at a caravan park will be sentenced next month.
Matthew Selby, 19, was due to be sentenced for the manslaughter of his 15-year-old sister Amanda Selby on Friday, March 18, but the case wasn't dealt with. The teenager had originally been charged with murdering his sister at Ty Mawr Caravan Park in Towyn on July 31, Daily Post reports.
But in February he admitted to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility when he appeared at Mold Crown Court. At an i nquest opening a provisional cause of death for Amanda was given as asphyxia due to neck compression, external airways obstruction and crush asphyxia.

A full inquest will be held once court proceedings have finished.
The judge Rhys Rowlands agreed to a new date next month when Selby, of Windermere Crescent in Ashton-Under Lyme, will be sentenced. It was fixed for April 26 and will be heard at Caernarfon Crown Court.
Amanda's family paid tribute to the 15-year-old following her death describing her as a "loving daughter and granddaughter".
They said: "She was caring, thoughtful, liked to help others and very much loved. She will be very sadly missed."
