EastEnders\u2019 Jasmine Fisher has her day in court next week as the trial for Anthony Trueman\u2019s murder<\/a> reaches a tense climax. With the Slaters and the Truemans divided, and secrets from the past set to be exposed, will Jasmine be sent down for doing in her dad, or can she convince the jury it was self-defence? <\/p>\n

“It\u2019s finally time for Jasmine to face the music,” begins our EastEnders insider. “Anthony\u2019s shocking death has torn two families apart, and Jasmine\u2019s future is hanging in the balance. She has an important choice to make <\/a>that could determine her fate \u2013 let\u2019s hope she makes the right one\u2026”<\/p>\n

Overwhelmed by the idea of facing his son\u2019s killer in person, grieving Patrick has submitted a video statement about Jasmine. Super lawyer Richie is on the case, and fears this could seriously hamper her client\u2019s chances of freedom. <\/p>\n

In desperation, she begs Kat to speak up on behalf of her granddaughter and give her own character statement in court. Kat refuses, but when Zoe shares her fears Josh might leave Walford for good if his twin sister is found guilty, the conflicted landlady reconsiders her stance.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Josh feels as though he\u2019s let Jasmine down, having bonded with Patrick and the Truemans \u2013 who just want justice for Anthony, despite his bad behaviour.<\/p>\n

As Josh visits Jasmine in prison<\/a> to determine exactly what happened on Christmas night, will he finally get the truth? And could it change his mind about sticking around? <\/p>\n

“Sandra is keen for her and Josh to make a fresh start away from all this drama,” our source reminds us. “She\u2019s found a place for them to live in Southend \u2013 only Jasmine and Zoe don\u2019t know yet!<\/p>\n

“Kat is still unsure about defending Jasmine in court, and quizzes Sandra on the girl\u2019s upbringing. Will Sandra reveal the truth<\/a> about why Jasmine was adopted into another family when she was eight years old?”<\/p>\n

Kat digests what Sandra tells her, then prepares to take the stand. It\u2019s a tricky situation for Kat to navigate, as her shaky relationship with Zoe may be jeopardised by defending Jasmine. Can Kat really trust her volatile granddaughter? <\/p>\n

As the trial continues, Jasmine gets ready to tell her side of the story hoping she can avoid a life behind bars. The accused finds herself with an impossible dilemma: plead guilty in the hope she might get a shorter sentence, or give her own statement explaining things from her point of view.<\/p>\n

“The moment comes for the verdict to be read out,” shares our insider. “The Truemans and the Slaters are on tenterhooks, with Josh caught in the middle as to where his loyalties really lie. Let\u2019s just say not everyone is going to be happy with the verdict\u2026”<\/p>\n

Back at The Vic, Kat attempts to make sense of the events of the day. Desperate to move on from the trial\u2019s twists and turns she makes a bold declaration about her family\u2019s future. Can the community move on from the murder? <\/p>\n
