Gafyn Denman, 22, an aircraft worker, of Woodlands Close, Mold, admitted the manslaughter of Peter William Jones, in Buckley on May 9.

Ex-player's daughter hanged herself

The teenage daughter of former Premier League star Antoine Sibierski hanged herself after drinking champagne and taking the recently banned drug mephedrone, an inquest heard.

Sibylle Sibierski, 18, was described as a regular user of the drug, which was made illegal in April this year after its link to a number of deaths.

Stockport Coroner's Court heard that Miss Sibierski, a student who liked to party and smoke cannabis, was also deeply insecure and "paranoid".

She had rowed with her boyfriend the night before she died. Police were called and she was arrested.

The inquest also heard that users of mephedrone, also known as Miaow Miaow or Bubbles, often suffer low moods after taking the drug. It also affects their ability to think about the consequences of their actions.
