Hung Jury in Just Stop Oil Heathrow Criminal Damage Trial

The jury has failed to reach a verdict in the trial of two Just Stop Oil activists accused of criminal damage.

Phoebe Plummer, 23, and Jane Touil, 58, are accused of causing £8,000 worth of damage at Heathrow Airport on Tuesday, 30th July 2024. That valuation is considerably less than the initial £50,000 estimate.

The pair were on trial at Isleworth Crown Court, but HHJ Hannah Duncan discharged the jury on Thursday, 16th January 2025.

Just Stop Oil recorded the incident, which you can view below.

A retrial will take place in 2026.

You can read my earlier thoughts on this kind of nonsense in an earlier article.
