The brutal murder of a Scottish woman who was strangled to death by her own son is to feature in a new Netflix documentary.
Carol-Anne Taggart, 54, was killed by her son Ross Taggart who then buried her body underneath a caravan.
Taggart, 39, attacked his mother at the home they shared in Dunfermline, Fife, then sparked a missing person inquiry by claiming to police she had stormed out of the house following a row.

He was jailed for a minimum of 18 years at the High Court in Edinburgh after being found guilty of the December 2014 murder.
The case will be the subject of an hour-long episode in the new series of When Missing Turns To Murder, which will be aired on Netflix later this year.
In her will, Carole-Anne had made Taggart executor of her estate and bequeathed the bulk of her £500,000 fortune to him.
Whilst Taggart cannot profit from his mum's death as a result of his murder conviction, he has refused to resign as an executor of and retains complete control over all decisions relating to the estate.
The Netflix show will include an interview with Carol-Anne's daughter Lorraine Bristow, 34, who has been campaigning to have the law changed so murderers cannot act as executors of their victims' estates.
When Missing Turns to Murder is described as a "powerful, forensic and highly emotional series that reveals what happens in a police investigation and to the family at its heart when a loved one goes missing and then they get the worst possible news."
Miles Jarvis, founding partner at production firm Phoenix Television, who make the series for Netflix, said: "Viewer feedback from season one of When Missing Turns to Murder was hugely supportive of the families who take part.

"It's an honour and huge responsibility to have the opportunity and trust to tell the stories of these ten new families and the police officers who worked with them.
"The contributors we work with take part to help stop such horrors happening again. In this series, their brave testimony highlights issues including coercive behaviour, domestic violence and relocation of paedophiles in communities."
Within hours of killing his mother, Taggart went to the home of a woman in Dunfermline seeking sex after connecting on a dating website.
He then had a night out in Edinburgh using his mother's credit card and pawned her jewellery, claiming that it had been left to him.
Police found Carol-Anne's body wrapped in bedding and trussed in twine under a caravan at Pettycur Bay, Fife, in January, 2015.
The 10-part series of When Missing Turns to Murder will be available on Netflix on April 19.
