The trial of a UK man suspected of defrauding eBay users was scuttled after an employee for the online auction house abruptly left the island before offering key testimony.
According to the Herald Express, eBay employee Kevin Morgan arrived in Exeter on Sunday, but left on Wednesday morning before taking the stand because he was fed up with the wait.
"The trial has effectively been torpedoed by his leaving the country," prosecutor Martin Kenny said. "I would have thought eBay would have been keen to give evidence to allow the court to get to the bottom of this case."
