A man who murdered his brother-in-law and attempted to kill three others during a shooting spree on the Isle of Skye and the Scottish mainland has been jailed for 28 years.
Finlay MacDonald, 41, killed his brother-in-law with a shotgun on 10 August 2022. His “frenzied” attacks began that morning when he stabbed his wife, Rowena MacDonald, multiple times at their home in Taskarvaig on the island’s Sleat peninsula after discovering “flirty” text messages exchanged between her and her boss. She said the attack punctured both her lungs and left her “squelching blood” during each breath.
