Jersey man pleads not guilty to murder for third time

A Jersey man has denied murdering his lover, as he prepares to stand trial for a third time.

57-year-old Jamie Lee Warn is accused of killing 37-year-old Zsuzsanna Besenyei.

He pleaded not guilty to the charge at Jersey’s Royal Court on Friday 6 August.

Warn was found guilty of her murder at two separate trials in 2019 and 2020, but the conviction has twice been quashed.

The Court of Appeal ordered a second retrial in July 2021.

Miss Besenyei went missing in May 2018. Her body was found washed on a beach at Le Pulec in Jersey six days later.

Warn has been remanded in custody until his trial.
