It's justice but our sentence does not come to an end

THE mum of a teenager murdered nearly 28 years ago said seeing the last of her killers jailed yesterday was "like a weight lifted off my shoulders".

Donna Marie Brand, 44, was found guilty in December at the High Court in Glasgow alongside Robert O'Brien, 45, and Andrew Kelly, 44, of killing O'Brien's 14-year-old girlfriend Caroline Glachan in August 1996.

Yesterday Caroline's mother Margaret McKeich looked on as Brand was handed a life sentence with a minimum tariff of 17 years.

Speaking outside the court, Margaret said: "It was a good sentence and it was actually more than I was expecting.

"I'm quite pleased - now it's like a weight lifted off my shoulders and as I've said before it's not closure, it's justice.

"We don't get closure, it's a void that will not ever be filled, so you don't get closure."
