00:00 While no sentence can bring Jacob back, I hope that today brings the family some closure
00:04 on what has been a horrific two and a half years.
00:06 I'd like to thank them for the respectful and dignified manner in which they have conducted
00:13 themselves throughout the trial.
00:16 My condolences remain with them and I would like to ask that their privacy is respected
00:20 at this time.
00:21 I would also like to thank everyone who has been involved in this particularly harrowing
00:26 case, from the team of detectives and Holmes administrators who conducted the investigation,
00:32 Crown Prosecution Service colleagues who helped build the file and the Prosecution Council
00:36 who laid out our case to the jury.
00:40 You all helped secure justice for Jacob in a compassionate, professional and diligent
00:44 manner that has meant a dangerous individual can cause no further harm.
