Barmaid's killer dies in hospital

Barmaid's killer dies in hospital

A man who was serving life for the murder of a barmaid from Cheltenham has died after collapsing in prison.

"Paul McMillan, 27, was convicted of stabbing Shirley Cotton-Betteridge more than 40 times at a Bristol pub in 2001.

He punched and kicked her to the ground as she was cashing up, before stabbing her to death in a frenzied attack.

McMillan pleaded guilty to manslaughter and was given a life sentence. On Thursday he was found unconscious at Broadmoor and later died in hospital".

40 wounds? Good riddance to a disgusting animal.
