Overview
- Anthony Williams’ trial, first set for June 22, was moved to October 26 at a Cambridge Crown Court hearing on Tuesday, subject to a High Court judge’s availability.
- Judge Mark Bishop extended the custody time limits, keeping Williams on remand with his attendance excused for the listing.
- Prosecutors and the defense said fresh reports are required, including new psychiatric assessments, so the June date was no longer viable.
- The indictment now totals 21 charges, including 10 attempted‑murder counts linked to stabbings on an LNER train from Doncaster to London on November 1.
- Other counts cover an alleged attempted murder at Pontoon Dock DLR before dawn on November 1, where a victim suffered facial injuries, and several October 31 incidents in Peterborough.
