Granddad Clinton Mutten told the jury that nine-year-old Charlise had “really liked” Justin Stein and on one occasion asked if he thought the accused murderer would "be a good dad" MailOnline Australia 15 MAY 2024 https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incomin...THP4407JPG.jpg A nine-year-old schoolgirl really liked her alleged killer and was looking forward to Christmas with him and her mother, a court has heard. https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incomin...THP4412JPG.jpg Justin Stein is accused of murder Justin Laurens Stein is accused of murdering Charlise Mutten on or around January 12, 2022, at Mount Wilson in the Blue Mountains, west of Sydney. He is on trial in Australia for her murder and the girl's grandfather, Clinton Mutten has appeared as the first witness in the NSW Supreme Court trial, which is expected to last six weeks. Charlise had been visiting Stein and her mother, Kallista Mutten, over the holiday break. She had lived with her grandparents since she was four after her mother - who was a long-term drug user - was unable to care for her properly, the jury has been told. Giving evidence today, granddad Clinton Mutten told the jury that Charlise had “really liked” Stein and on one occasion asked if he thought the accused murderer would "be a good dad". He told the court the youngster said she was “happy and excited” about the trip and he was not concerned for her safety despite the couple’s history of drug use. Stein’s defence lawyer, Carolyn Davenport, suggested that at the time of Charlise’s visit her mother was continuing to use the drug ice intravenously, but Clinton Mutten said he was under the impression both had “cleaned their act up”. Mutten described his granddaughter as an academic all-rounder who loved animals and had dreams of becoming a veterinarian. He said: “I took her to school, I was the one who sat down at the parent-teacher interviews. I was very much involved with Charlise.” https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incomin...THP4406JPG.jpg CCTV images captured Stein at a BP service station at Marsden Park, in northwest Sydney, the next day. He was towing a boat with his Holden Colorado ute, which was also allegedly transporting a barrel containing Charlise's body. Stein denies the charges. The trial continues. |
