Speedboat killer Jack Shepherd has written a letter to his victim’s family in which he claims to reveal what really happened on the night of Charlotte Brown’s death.
Shepherd left the note with a close friend shortly before handing himself in to police in Georgia last week.
His lawyer Mariam Kublashvili claims that the letter ‘answers all the questions everyone has’.

Miss Brown’s father Graham said last night: ‘I’ve heard nothing about any letter, but in any case the time to have answered what happened to Charlotte that night was at his trial – which he was absent from. I do not welcome or seek any contact from Shepherd.’
Shepherd, 31, claimed Miss Brown, 24, was driving the speedboat when it flipped on the River Thames in December 2015.

He fled to Georgia after being charged with manslaughter and was jailed for six years in his absence.
Miss Brown’s mother Roz Wickens, 53, has urged Shepherd to ‘stop lying’ and ‘tell the truth about what happened’.

Shepherd fled Britain last March but, after a campaign by the Mail, he handed himself in.
The web designer is being held for three months at Gldani Number Eight maximum security prison in Tbilisi.
In 2012 guards were filmed beating inmates and carrying out sexual humiliation punishments with broom handles.
Shepherd is sharing a room with two other inmates and must use communal toilet and shower facilities.
He has started reading The Count of Monte Cristo – an Alexandre Dumas novel in which the main character breaks out of a prison.
Despite claiming in court he handed himself in ‘to draw to a close this horrible accident and the terrible consequences’, Shepherd is still not cooperating with the authorities.
He supplied a fake address in Tbilisi and police sources say they are still trying to find out where he was living.
