The heartbroken family of a Scots mum who died after being raped and set on fire say "she didn’t deserve to die that day" with her death "changing our lives forever".
Jill Barclay was walking home from a night out in Dyce, Aberdeen, when she was followed and attacked by evil Rhys Bennett. The 47-year-old’s body was found alight by emergency services who were called to the scene in the early hours of September 17 last year.
Killer Bennett has today been sentenced to 24 years in jail with his victim’s loved ones issuing a moving statement outside the High Court in Edinburgh.
