Allen, of Bradbury’s Close, Parkgate, is also accused of - and denies - murdering Hull sex worker Samantha Class (29) in October 1997 and dumping her in the Humber.
He was tried and acquitted in 2000 but is being tried again because new evidence has come to light.
Jurors began deliberations after retiring at 10.50am today.
