Postman jailed for 23 years after beheading girlfriend
Warning: This article contains details some readers may find distressing An "evil" postman who moaned about being lonely hours before he severed his girlfriend's head and tried to dismember her body has been jailed for a minimum of 23 years. Ewan Methven murdered Phoenix Spencer-Horn, 21, in the flat they shared in East Kilbride, near Glasgow, last November. The High Court in Glasgow heard the killer dumped his partner's body parts in their hallway and failed to call emergency services for two days. The 27-year-old then bought drugs, watched pornography and sent sickening texts to Phoenix's worried mum pretending she was still alive. Phoenix was stabbed 20 times using three knives in an attack that unfolded after she returned from her waitressing job in Lanarkshire. The 21-year-old described Methven as her "soul mate" on social media, saying in one TikTok video: "Life is so much more beautiful and full of colour with you." A few months later she was murdered by the same man she had been in a relationship with for two years. 'There was a bad smell where the walls join' Sky News has interviewed the couple's neighbour who lives directly next door. Toni Brown, 25, described the horror of discovering what happened. She said: "I think I stayed out of the house for about a week after that. I couldn't even sit. It was horrific. "It's horrific. It gives me shivers thinking about it. It is crazy to think I stayed next door to a monster like that. "What scares me the most is knowing she was lay there and I was in here oblivious." Asked whether she heard any noises or violence around the time of the murder, Ms Brown said: "There was a bad smell in my house in the early hours of the morning she was found. "There was a bad smell in my kitchen basically where the walls join together. Methven's own defence lawyer told the court society will see him as the "personification of evil". When he eventually called 999, he claimed to have suffered a drug-induced blackout during the violent killing. Another life lost to gender-based violence It has raised questions once again about the growing prevalence of gender-based violence. Fiona Drouet's daughter Emily was 18 years old when she took her own life at university in Aberdeen in 2016, days after being choked and slapped by her ex-boyfriend. Angus Milligan was later convicted of physical and psychological abuse. Fiona, who now campaigns on violence against women across the UK and Ireland, has set up a charity called Emily's Test in her daughter's name. Reacting to the death of Phoenix Spencer-Horn, Ms Drouet told Sky News: "There is another mother and father that have just been plunged into utter hell. "Somebody once said to me that if god came to you and said, 'I am going to give you this beautiful daughter, but you'll only have her for 18 years and then we need to take her back, would you still want her?' and I would take those 18 years and go through the pain rather than have nothing. "Although just now that probably offers no words of comfort for Phoenix's parents, maybe one day it can."

Police announce plan to breathalyse passengers leaving Aberdeen International Airport
Police plan to breathalyse some passengers driving off after landing at Aberdeen International Airport, in a trial scheme to tackle drink-driving among holidaymakers. Operation Safe Landing is a joint initiative between border policing and road policing officers and could be rolled out to other areas. Those who choose to drink alcohol on their flight are being urged to make arrangements for safe onward travel from the airport to their final destination. There will be an increased police presence at the airport and officers will engage with arriving passengers, conduct roadside checks and carry out breathalyser tests where appropriate. Border policing inspector Kelly Manson said: "We understand that for many, a drink on a flight can be part of the holiday experience. "However, the legal drink-drive limit in Scotland is strict, and the effects of alcohol, coupled with potential travel fatigue, can significantly impair a driver's ability to operate a vehicle safely. "Operation Safe Landing is about ensuring everyone arriving at the airport gets home safely, without putting themselves or others at risk. "This pilot project will be evaluated with a view to rolling it out to other areas." 2:31 Police Scotland detected 8,568 drink and drug-driving offences in 2024/25. The penalties for drink-driving in Scotland include a minimum 12-month driving ban, a fine of up to £5,000, a criminal record and, in some cases, a prison sentence. Road policing inspector Steve Manson said: "Drink-driving kills and seriously injures people. The decision can be life changing for you and the people around you. "We're asking everyone to take responsibility and help us save lives." Robert Paterson, head of operations at Aberdeen International Airport, welcomed the launch of the scheme, saying passenger safety is "always a key focus for us". "We understand that holidays are a time to relax, but it's important that everyone considers how they'll get home safely," he added.

Moment gunshots ring out in quiet suburban street and shatter window of family home - as trio are jailed for 62 years for attempted murder
This is the terrifying moment thugs fired gunshots at a family home in a botched murder plot with three men being jailed for more than 60 years in total. CCTV captured three shots being blasted at the upstairs and downstairs windows of the house in Perry Barr, Birmingham. Shomari Mapp, Shaquon Richardson-Bowen and Aairus Rehman arrived on the road in a stolen Skoda at around 11pm on May 18 last year. Rehman opened fire at the home of Eian and Helena Lothian, with the former hit by shattered glass from an upstairs window. During the shooting, a camera at the front of the address was damaged in attempt to conceal the identities of the gang. A brick was also thrown at the windscreen of a parked car near the property. The thugs then drove off from the scene before torching the stolen car. Mrs Lothian had been out at the time, having been followed by the trio earlier, but now has a permanent memory of the incident in the shape of a bullet mark in the living room sofa where she normally sits. It remains unclear why the three man targeted the address. Police launched a manhunt and using CCTV, ANPR cameras and mobile phone evidence, were able to identify the gang. Mapp and Rehman, both 22, and Richardson-Bowen, 21, were arrested and charged for the targeted attack. Detectives discovered the suspects were together in the hours before the shooting before switching off their phones. Footage also captured them driving past the home one hour before the attack. Mapp and Richardson-Bowen, of Birmingham, were found guilty of attempted murder and arson and were each jailed for 20 years. Rehman, of Birmingham, admitted arson and possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life at an earlier hearing. He was also found guilty at Birmingham Crown Court of attempted murder and was jailed for 22 years. Judge Andrew Smith KC said all three men, who had never previously committed a crime, were 'dangerous' but he concluded they did not warrant life or extended sentences due to the length of time they would serve. He said: 'This was a planned attempted murder involving the use of a firearm. 'The nature of the offending alone sustains the conclusion each of you poses a substantial risk of causing serious harm.' During the early evening of the attack they carried out reconnaisance trips, including following Mrs Lothian as she left the home for work. They were then captured on CCTV at a burger shop appearing 'incredibly relaxed'. Having turned off their mobile phones they returned to home, with Mapp driving the Skoda. Rehman, who admitted he was the gunman, shot at three windows of the home. Richardson-Bowen, who was armed with a knife, got out and damaged a car on the driveway. The shooting lasted no more than two seconds before the three men left went to a pre-determined location where the car was torched. They then tried to cover their tracks further by changing mobile numbers. The gun used was not recovered. The Lothians share the home with their two daughters and grandson. Mr Lothian said he thought he was going to have a heart attack when glass from the upstairs window of his grandson's bedroom shattered and struck him. He described feeling helpless at not being able to protect his family and spoke of the constant worry he had been left with. Mr Lothian said: 'I didn't know any of the defendants. I'm at a loss as to why my family was targeted. We have worked hard and are law-abiding.' Mrs Lothian said she 'knew something wasn't right' after being followed earlier that evening on her way to work. She said she was 'terrified' of it happening again and could 'still see the bullet mark on the living room sofa' where she normally sits. Mrs Lothian added family members were now reluctant to visit as she described feeling scared 'all the time'. Judge Smith said: 'The motive for the attack on the home has never been revealed by the evidence. 'I am certain there was absolutely no reason for Mr and Mrs Lothian to be targeted in the way they were.' Detective Inspector Francis Nock, from West Midlands Police Major Crimes Unit, said: 'The shooting required immense planning by the offenders. 'They conducted careful reconnaissance of the location and clearly planned both the shooting itself and how to best cover their tracks afterwards. 'It's a miracle someone wasn't more seriously injured.' Jasvir Mann, defending Rehman, said he was of low maturity. He told the court he had worked for Jaguar Land Rover and then Aston Martin, moving up from a vehicle technician to a software engineer. Simon Williams, defending Mapp, said his friends and family had described him as 'respectful, helpful, honest, trustworthy and talented'. He told the court he had previously hoped to set up his own business and had maintained a positive attitude despite now facing lengthy imprisonment. Marie de Redman, for Richardson-Bowen, stated he was on a 'path of self-destruction' at the time due his grandmother passing away and struggling to find work. She said he prioritised 'loyalty and friendships' over making positive decisions about his life. The barrister told the court that he had become a mentor at HMP Birmingham, completed various rehabilitative courses as well as obtained jobs as a wing cleaner and barber. Finally, she revealed that Richardson-Bowen had said he hoped his punishment offered 'solace' to the victims.
