Caroline Glachan killer jailed for 17 years after trio of monsters convicted of murdering teen, 14 | Z2R862J | 2024-04-30 06:08:01
A WOMAN who was one of three people convicted of murdering a teenage girl more than 27 years ago has been jailed for at least 17 years.
Donna Marie Brand, 44, was found guilty in December at the High Court in Glasgow alongside Robert O'Brien, 45 and Andrew Kelly, of killing O'Brien's 14-year-old girlfriend Caroline Glachan in August 1996.
During 10 days of evidence, the jury heard the trio had arranged to meet Caroline at a bridge near the towpath beside the River Leven, between Renton and Bonhill in West Dunbartonshire, on August 25 that year.
Caroline was repeatedly punched and kicked, and had bricks or similar items thrown at her, causing blunt force trauma to her head and body.
She was pushed or fell into undergrowth and her body was discovered in the river at Place of Bonhill, Renton, later the same day, which was her mother's 40th birthday.
Brand was jailed for life and ordered to serve a minimum of 17 years when she appeared for sentencing today.
O'Brien and Kelly were sentenced to life terms in January, with O'Brien ordered to serve a minimum of 22 years behind bars and Kelly a minimum of 18 years.
Brand could not be sentenced in January because she was in hospital.
