DEVON, England, March 18 (UPI) -- Two men were part of a plot to rob and kill soul singer Joss Stone, British prosecutors charged in opening statements Monday.
Kevin Liverpool and Junior Bradshaw are charged with conspiring to murder and conspiring to rob after prosecutors said they drove from Manchester to Stone's home in Devon in June 2011 with the intent of robbing and killing her, prosecutors said. The plan was thwarted by an "eagle-eyed" resident who became suspicious of the car they were driving and called police, prosecutor Simon Morgan said.
