Heir to $292M Fortune on Trial for Christmas Eve Murder

Dylan Thomas, accused of killing his only friend, claims self-defense while being treated for schizophrenia.

Dylan Thomas, 24, is accused of murdering his friend William Bush in a brutal knife attack on Christmas Eve 2023.
Thomas, heir to a $292 million pie company fortune, had previously pleaded guilty to manslaughter but denies murder charges.
The court heard that Thomas conducted a chilling online search for 'anatomy of the neck' hours before the attack.
The prosecution argues the attack was premeditated, citing Thomas's earlier statement to Bush about considering killing him.
Thomas is being treated for schizophrenia and claims he acted in self-defense, but the trial continues as experts debate his mental state at the time.
