Two men who licked blood from their victim's face have been caged for an “unmerciful and savage murder.” Samuel Atcheson and Steven Arthur Hunter, both from Ballymena, Northern Ireland, brutally killed Donald Harold Fraser-Rennie, 33, on October 29, 2020.
Dad-of-three Donald's lifeless body was discovered at Atcheson’s flat by police. It was the prosecution case that he died as a result of a “unmerciful, prolonged and sustained attack", reports Belfast Live.
Atcheson, 36, will serve a minimum of 16 years before he is eligible for parole, while Hunter, 32, will spend at least 15 years behind bars. The senseless murder was filmed by the attackers, with Hunter's 58-second video being shown in Belfast Crown Court last month.
