Read our privacy policy A young music producer was killed in a “pitiless” gang knife attack in front of parents on the afternoon school run, a court has heard. Opening his trial on Wednesday, Crispin Aylett KC said Mr Pascal-Modeste, from Barking, east London, was not a gang member and had simply been “looking to make a name for himself in the music business”. Mr Aylett told jurors that Mr Pascal-Modeste’s two friends were linked to the “Splash gang” based in south-east London. Mr Aylett said: “The prosecution say that the time has now come for him, too, to face the music.” Williamson, of Greenwich, south east London, denies murder and the trial continues.
