Craig Walker strangled and stabbed Lauren Wilson 29 times before putting her body in a sports bag.

A former Scotland hockey player murdered a woman in a vicious attack after learning she was about to tell his wife they were having an affair.

He denied murder, insisting Ms Wilson, who had a young daughter, was hurt during a "frantic struggle".As he was being led from the dock into the cells, a member of the public shouted: "Rot in hell you evil monster."In his evidence Walker claimed that Ms Wilson had a knife which he tried to get off her.

"I asked Mr Walker what this was and he said: 'That's her. She is in the bag'," said the officer, who promptly handcuffed Walker. The court heard that Ms Wilson's mother Pauline, 61, had become "frightened" after she did not pick up her daughter on the day of her death. Her mother said it was "totally out of character for Lauren" because "she would never leave her daughter ever".

But when she quizzed her husband about Ms Wilson, he claimed to have known her "from years ago" and denied he was in a relationship with her.
