Peter Maher delivered at least 11 blows to his wife of 30 years in their home in Glasgow.

Stephen said he went upstairs and saw his parents' room was an "absolute bombsite" with "everything everywhere".His brother Richard also went into the room and pulled back the bed covers before letting out a "gasp" or "scream" upon finding his mum lying there.He told jurors: "Really bad. She was covered in blood. The top part of her skull was missing.

He immediately dialled 999 and was told to try CPR, but he told prosecutors it would not have had any effect.He stated he "did not know who was responsible" and "did not know anyone that would harm his wife".In a post-mortem report, Dr Turner noted her head injury was "indicative of multiple blows with a heavy blunt object... at least 11 to the scalp alone, but probably many more.

Det Supt Scott McCallum, from Police Scotland's major investigation team, said: "Jeanna was a much loved mother to her three sons and her extended family."It has been a very difficult time for all of them, and although today's verdict won't change what happened, I hope this outcome will help bring Jeanna's family some closure.

"This was a brutal attack on a woman who should have been safe in her own home and Peter Maher will now have to face the consequences for his actions." Maher first appeared in court in 2018, but the following year he was assessed as unfit to stand trial.The case was halted again after Maher sacked his then lawyers. The latest trial began in late January.
