The Daily Mail reported a jury convicted Andre Wright-Walters of manslaughter in James Gbadamosi's death.

Thursday's guilty verdict is the jury's finding on manslaughter, which is the day the Metropolitan Police printed. The Mail's body says yesterday, and its caption says Wednesday. Nov. 3 is the sentencing date both printed. Carla Brenton's not-guilty verdict is a separate result. The Mail does not print her name.

The Daily Mail reported Friday, Oct. 30, 2026, in a story by Eleanor Mann published at 5:46 a.m. EDT and updated at 10:03 a.m. EDT, that a jury at Kingston-upon-Thames Crown Court convicted Andre Wright-Walters, 38, of manslaughter in the death of James Gbadamosi, 67. The Mail reported the conviction was yesterday. Yesterday, on a story dated Oct. 30, is Thursday, Oct. 29. The photograph caption on the same page says he was convicted on Wednesday. The Metropolitan Police, in a release timed 15:34 on Oct. 29, 2026, reported he was convicted of manslaughter on Thursday, Oct. 29, after a trial at the same court, and printed his date of birth as 05.02.88. That is the day-month-year form on the release, Feb. 5, 1988. Thursday and Wednesday are not the same day. The guilty verdict is the jury's finding. Both the Mail and the Met reported he will be sentenced at that court on Nov. 3. The Met printed Tuesday, Nov. 3. Nov. 3, 2026, is a Tuesday. The sentence has not been imposed.

The Mail reported prosecutor Ben Holt said the incident was a little after 3 p.m., that Gbadamosi was with his partner outside Costa Coffee on Balham High Road, and that he became upset about a young boy cycling a Lime bike on the pavement. Holt said, in the Mail's account, that Gbadamosi told him he should not be on the pavement and should be on the road, and that he then had an exchange with a woman who said, "You think you're a big man shouting at a child." The Mail reported Holt said she walked away, sat on a bench, called Wright-Walters, and that he later arrived with a child on his shoulders, put the child down, and confronted Gbadamosi. It reported Holt said Wright-Walters punched and slapped him and then punched him twice in the face, knocking him to the floor, and that he hit his head on the pavement. The child is not named here. The Met reported he told a child to be careful as the child was riding an electric bike fast on the pavement around pedestrians. A Lime bike and an electric bike are not the same description. "Should be on the road" and "to be careful" are not the same instruction. The Met reported police were called to Balham High Road at about 3:40 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 24, 2025, that officers and the London Ambulance Service found Gbadamosi with life-threatening injuries after he had been punched and hit his head on the ground, and that he died in hospital on Friday, Sept. 5, 2025. The Mail reported the date of the assault as Aug. 24 last year and the death as Sept. 5, and it called the gap two weeks. Aug. 24 to Sept. 5 is twelve days.

The Mail reported Wright-Walters and the woman were arrested three days later, on Aug. 27, and that police found cocaine when they searched their home. It reported that in a prepared statement he said the other man was immediately aggressive, got into his personal space, and that he thought he was going to be assaulted, that the other man seemed to want a fight, that he was walking backwards while Gbadamosi walked toward him, that the other man was much taller, and that he had not gone there to fight anyone. The Met reported he was arrested at his home on Wednesday, Aug. 27, 2025, on suspicion of grievous bodily harm with intent and possession of a Class A drug, and that he later pleaded guilty to the drug offence. Cocaine, in the Mail, and a Class A drug, in the Met release, are not labeled as the same exhibit. A guilty plea is the conviction on the drug count he admitted. The Met reported that after Gbadamosi died, Wright-Walters was arrested on Saturday, Sept. 6, on suspicion of murder and charged the next day, and that the charge was amended to manslaughter ahead of the trial. The Mail reported he is of Greenwich, south-east London. The Met reported he is of Este Road, Battersea. Greenwich and Battersea are not the same place.

The Mail did not name the woman who called him. The Met reported Carla Brenton, 31, of Pier Road, Bexley, also charged in connection with the incident, was found not guilty of manslaughter. The release prints her date of birth as 06.01.95, the same day-month-year form, Jan. 6, 1995. The release does not say she is the woman in Holt's account. A not-guilty verdict is the jury's finding on her. It is not a finding about the call.

The Mail and the Met printed the same family tribute. It says the family welcomes the verdict and thanks the police, that Gbadamosi was loved by so many, especially his husband, who lost his partner and the future they had hoped to share, and that he was an affable, funny, intelligent, and caring man. Holt's account in the Mail called the person with Gbadamosi outside Costa his partner. The tribute calls that person his husband. Partner and husband are both in the Mail. Detective Inspector Sarah Philippe, who led the investigation, told both outlets, "While no conviction can ever bring James back to his loved ones or undo the pain and suffering caused by his death, we hope today's verdict provides them with a measure of closure and a sense that justice has been served." Thursday's manslaughter verdict is the finding. Nov. 3 is the date set for Wright-Walters to be sentenced. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
