R v MARK ANTHONY CONNOLLY : R v ROY PATRICK KENNETT (2007)

[2007] EWCA Crim 790

Where an offence had various ingredients and it was sufficient that only one of those ingredients be satisfied, the judge had failed to explicitly direct that the jury needed to achieve unanimity by the same route. However, his direction was only marginally deficient and convictions for manslaughter by gross negligence were safe.
