AMBER Gibson’s brother Connor contacted the Daily Record after her murder claiming he wanted “everyone to know what she was really like” and paid glowing tributes to her online.

Her body was discovered in a wooded area near Cadzow Glen in Hamilton on the morning of November 28, 2021, two days after she had been reported missing.
