On a cold February morning in 2003 at 7.30am, a postman who had been partway through his delivery rounds was found dying in a pool of blood on a snowy driveway after been brutally beaten in Flintshire, Wales.
Paul Savage, 30, was lying on the ground outside a house on Clayton Road in the market town Mold by a homeowner who had come out to go to his car. The dad-of-one had been repeatedly coshed around the head - so violently that the base of his skull had been crushed.
The resident dialled for help, and Paul was taken to Wrexham Maelor Hospital, but his injuries were too severe. He passed away just before 11am, having not regained consciousness after the vicious attack.
