Editing Nicholas Ninow (section)

== Trial ==
Ninow's trial commenced on February 8, 2019, following a month of psychiatric evaluation. He pleaded guilty in the first minutes of the trial, but court sessions continued as the severity of the crime needed to be assessed. Ninow's defence was that his long history of drug abuse, which is known to have started from the age of thirteen or fourteen, had caused him to become temporarily insane (not his actual words). After hearing medical evidence and testimony from the victim's family, as well as Ninow's confession (see above), the judge sentenced Ninow to life imprisonment with a chance of parole in 25 years. Ninow was additionally convicted of obstruction of justice, for attempting to dispose of the girl's panties, and drug possession, and received two consecutive sentences of imprisonment for five years on these counts.
