Why it matters: This is the suspect's first court appearance in the case that shocked the Suffolk community this summer.
Key details:
Barclay appeared at Ipswich Magistrates' Court on Wednesday morning.
He was later transferred to Ipswich Crown Court the same day.
The case has been adjourned until 31 January 2025.
The case background: Anita Rose, 57, died on 28 July following an attack during her morning dog walk.
Anita was found unconscious by a cyclist at approximately 6:25am on 24 July.
She had left home around 5am to walk her springer spaniel, Bruce.
When discovered, she was wearing only a bra on her upper body, with leggings and trainers.
She suffered serious head and facial injuries and died four days later at Addenbrooke's Hospital.
What's next: Suffolk Constabulary has referred itself to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) due to previous police contact with the accused, as is standard procedure. Meanwhile, Barclay will remain in custody until his next court appearance at Ipswich Crown Court on 31 January 2025.
