The devastated family of dad who was brutally murdered and dismembered have described their ordeal as "pure hell". Ashley Walsh, 34, was repeatedly struck with a hammer by Aaron Evitt, 34, on the night of January 7.
The killing apparently followed claims by Ashley that he'd slept with Evitt's ex, the Manchester Evening News reports. Evitt's cousin Gerard McGlacken, 45, then chopped up his body, before the putting the remains into four suitcases and dumping them in a local park.
The killers were jailed for at least 28 years after being found guilty of the murder, with Ashley's family cheering and applauding in court as the sentences were read out. Roughly 20 members of Ashley's family were in attendance and wore special purple hoodies in his memory.
