Ricky Preddie Biography

Ricky Preddie is one of the most popular and richest Student who was born on December 7, 1989 in Lagos, Lagos State, Nigeria.

Children’s author Beverley Naidoo dedicated her award-winning book “The Other Side of Truth” (2000), about two Nigerian child refugees aged 10 and 12, to Damilola Taylor. She recalled how when she went to accept the Smarties Silver Award for the book, Naidoo heard the shocking news of Damilola Taylor’s death on his way home from Peckham Library, which was a relevant area in the novel. As a result, she organised an ongoing donation of 10p to the Refugee Council from every book sold.

On 27 November 2000, Taylor set off from Peckham Library at 4:51 pm to make his way home. He was captured on CCTV as he walked away. On approaching the North Peckham Estate he received a gash to his left thigh, severing an artery. Staggering to a stairwell, he collapsed and bled to near death in the space of approximately 30 minutes. He was still alive in an ambulance on his way to hospital.

Actor John Boyega and his sister Grace were some of the last people to see Damilola alive. The three were friends and the Boyegas helped watch Taylor. John and Grace Boyega were very close to Damilola, who had arrived from Nigeria in 1999.

Despite the setback, police vowed to keep the investigation open. New DNA techniques identified Damilola’s blood on the trainers of another boy (not one of the first four suspects) Daniel Preddie and on the sweatshirt cuff of his brother Richard Preddie. This led to a re-examination of the evidence obtained at the time of Taylor’s death. In 2005, fresh arrests were made, this time on charges of manslaughter. The arrested were Hassan Jihad 19, and the two Preddie brothers aged 16 and 17 who could not be named at the time due to their age.

On 9 October 2006, an Old Bailey judge sentenced the Preddie brothers to eight years in youth custody for manslaughter.

In 2002, four youths, including two 16-year-old brothers, went on trial at the Old Bailey for the murder of Damilola. The trial led to all four suspects being acquitted. Two were acquitted on the direction of the judge after he ruled that the prosecution’s key witness, a 14-year-old girl, was unreliable; the jury found the other two not guilty. As well as questioning the reliability of the young witness, the defence presented evidence suggesting that Taylor’s wounds were consistent with his falling on a broken bottle and that he had not been the victim of an attack.
