YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A man who went on a shooting and stabbing spree in the Scottish Highlands has been found guilty of murdering his brother-in-law and attempting to kill three other people.

Finlay MacDonald, 41, repeatedly stabbed his wife, Rowena MacDonald, 34, during an attack at their home on the Isle of Skye and left her lying drenched in her own blood on the driveway in front of their young children on 10 August 2022.

MacDonald then drove to his sister's home, where he fatally shot his brother-in-law, John MacKinnon, 47, then set off for the village of Dornie, where he shot Fay and John MacKenzie before being apprehended.
