Detective Superintendent Lewis Basford said:
“Following today’s hearing before His Honour Judge Mark Lucraft KC, I can now confirm that Mark Gordon and Constance Marten have been convicted of concealing the birth of a child and perverting the course of justice.
“The jury could not reach a verdict for both Mark Gordon and Constance Marten on other charges and the investigation team from the Met’s Specialist Crime Command, alongside our partners from the Crown Prosecution Service, will now prepare for a re-trial in March 2025.
“We will not be making any further public statements until the conclusion of the re-trial.
“Our focus has always been, and remains, securing justice for baby Victoria.”
