Pusey files appeal

Sheldon Pusey, 25, who was convicted last week of manslaughter arising from the fatal stabbing of 64-year-old trade ambassador Peter King, has filed his appeal.



In court documents Pusey said two knives that were taken from the home of the deceased were not tendered in evidence, and are critical to the evidence.



Pusey is contending that Senior Puisine Judge Marva McIntosh erred in her summation because she did not tell the jury about the sex tapes which were allegedly taken from King\'s house.



He says the tapes will assist the jury to understand the dangerous and traumatic conditions that he would have been subjected to.



King was murdered at his Waterloo Road, St Andrew home between March 19 and 20, 2006.



Pusey said he acted in self-defence when King forced him to be intimate with him.



He’s to be sentenced in the Home Circuit Court on April 1.
