TWO men will go on trial this morning charged with the murder of Natalie Jarvis in Swanley.
Twenty-three-year-olds Thomas Fuller, of Oakley Drive, Eltham, and Adam Whelehan, of Roseberry Gardens, Sidcup, both deny murdering Miss Jarvis.
The trial at Maidstone Crown Court, which will be heard in front of a jury and Judge Philip Statman, is expected to last around two weeks.
Members of Miss Jarvis' family have packed out courtroom two this morning.
Members of the jury have been sworn in by Judge Statman and the prosecution is expected to open the hearing at 12.30pm.
Miss Jarvis, 23, was found on the ground in Swanley Village Road, in Swanley, after suffering stab wounds to her neck on October 3 last year.
A post-mortem examination confirmed she died from the stab wounds and a haemorrhage.
