A convicted murderer has been jailed for another 23 years after choking a fellow prison inmate to death in a “brutal execution”.
James O’Rourke, who is described as one of Scotland’s most dangerous prisoners, has already been behind bars for 30 years for a string of offences since he was originally convicted for killing a man in Airdrie in 1992.
He received the latest sentence after he admitted murdering fellow prisoner Dean Ramsey at HMP Glenochil on January 9 2021.
