The partner of a Scots mum who was raped and murdered just a few streets away from her home is planning to buy and demolish the abandoned building where she was brutally killed.
Leon Grant had known Jill Barclay since childhood, with the pair falling for each other later in life. They were together for 20 years and have two children, an eight-year-old daughter and son aged six.
Mr Grant, who now suffers from PTSD, says the recent court case to bring Jill's killer to justice has brought everything flooding back. Unable to bear the sight of the house where she was murdered, he is currently in talks with the property owners to purchase the building with the aim of knocking it down.
