The body of a murdered man was so badly charred that expert anthropologists were needed to help identify him. William Leiper was killed in Glasgow's Pollok area before his corpse was dumped in a wheelie bin, dragged to a nearby park and set alight.
A jogger and a dog walker went on to make the gruesome discovery at Househill Park. The details emerged as a judge heard the background to the death of the 31 year-old.
Jude McPhie was back in the dock at the High Court in Glasgow today after pleading guilty to murder on Monday. The 42 year-old admitted attacking Mr Leiper at the thug's flat in Hartstone Road between August 2 and 3, 2021.
