SCOTTISH MURDERERJAMES MCEWAN SENTENCED TO 20 YEARS

The article details the crimes of James McEwan, who, along with Martin Gorrian, murdered George Russell and Alan Mitchell.

They lured Russell into the Campsie Hills near The Coffin, beat him, then cut his throat, and disposed of his body in the water.

Their motive was linked to a supposed blackmail threat.

The pair were convicted in 1989 and sentenced to 20 years in prison.

Gorrian has since been released and is under supervision; McEwan is also heading for freedom after serving his sentence.

The article describes their violent tendencies and the brutal nature of their crimes, including confessions of further murders which they later recanted.
