LIFE IN JAIL FOR HILLSBOROUGH KILLER ON Thursday March 14, Danny Trotter of no-fixed-abode was sentenced to life in prison, to serve a minimum of 22 years for the murder of 31-year-old Gavin Singleton. On Sunday September 23 2018, the Yorkshire Ambulance Service received a 999 call from a member of the public saying that two men had been stabbed on Walkley Lane, Sheffield. On arrival, paramedics found Mr Singleton to be in a critical condition. Members of the public were performing CPR on him. He had sustained three stab wounds, one to the chest and two to his right leg. Paramedics arrived and treated Mr Singleton at the scene. He was then taken to the Northern General hospital where he underwent emergency surgery, at the time his injuries were described as life threatening. Sadly, on October 1 2018 the decision was made to withdraw life support, and five days later, Mr Singleton died.
Following the hearing yesterday Gavin Singleton’s family said: “We would like to thank South Yorkshire Police, the detectives who were part of this case and our family liaison officer who have all worked tirelessly in their efforts to bring Gavin’s killer to justice. Our family have very much appreciated the support they have received throughout this difficult time. “We are both happy and relieved with the guilty verdict, it won’t bring Gavin back but maybe he will be able to rest easier. “Gavin was a kind, happy, and well liked young man with lots of close friends and family. Gavin had a heart of gold and would do anything to help a person in need, even following his death he helped a number of people by being an organ donor. “This was a horrific and senseless knife attack. Gavin went out for a drink with friends and never made it home. Continued on page 2
