Millionaire's daughter 'part and parcel' of looting A university-educated millionaire's daughter who drove looters around while they robbed people at knifepoint during last year's riots was "part and parcel" of the criminality, a court heard today. Laura Johnson, 20, was given opportunities to call the police and drive away from four men who had "effectively kidnapped" her, London's Inner Crown Court heard. Johnson had gone to pick up her friend Emmanuel Okubote, 20, known as T-Man, from Curry's, in Bromley Road, Catford, south east London, when he and three other men wearing hooded tops, bandanas and balaclavas, got into the back of her car and ordered her to drive. The student had begun a close friendship with Okubote during the summer after being introduced to him by a friend she met while a mental health unit outpatient. Johnson, who the jury has heard previously tried to kill herself, says she was too frightened to report the men or flee during their rioting on August 8. The defendant denies being a willing participant in the gang as they drove around the Catford, Hither Green and Charlton areas of London while the men got in and out of the car to loot and rob people. But today Sandy Canavan, prosecuting, said the student was making things up as she went along in her defence. Johnson was in possession of mobile phones during her effective "kidnap," which meant the four men believed she would not report them, the barrister said. Miss Canavan said: "The only reality is you were left with the phones as they (the men) were absolutely sure they weren't at any risk of you having access to those because you were very much part and parcel of what was taking place." The defendant entered a petrol station alone that evening to pay for fuel and could have raised the alarm, Miss Canavan said. "If you had the phones with you, you could have called the police yourself," she said. "I could have, yes," answered the defendant. "You could have texted anybody to indicate you were in trouble," Miss Canavan added. "I could have, yes," replied Johnson. The reality is you would have got in touch with somebody to say 'I am in trouble, help'. The defendant answered "No I wouldn't," and agreed with the barrister's suggestion that she was "terrified."
