'Monster' lab technician jailed for 23 years for killing HR worker in 'blind rage' by strangling her to death and slitting her throat
Ross McCullam, who had admitted manslaughter before his trial but denied murder, was convicted in little more than 90 minutes by a jury at Leicester Crown Court on Monday.
McCullam, of Windsor Close, Coalville, Leicestershire, had claimed he acted only in a "blind rage" after a loss of control which Miss Newborough had inadvertently triggered during oral sex, after an incident at his parents' home on August 6, 2021. Jailing 30-year-old McCullam, of Windsor Close, Coalville, Leicestershire, Judge Philip Head said: "I regard you cutting her throat as a very substantial aggravating factor."Earlier the judge described 23-year-old Miss Newborough, of Nuneaton, Warwickshire, as a "stellar" personality, who was "supportive, patient and caring" of friends, colleagues and family.
"She was loved by so many and touched so many lives for those she met and left a great gaping hole that can never be filled. Miss Newborough's sibling added: "We fully believe the defendant tried to decapitate Megan, this brutalisation of my sister's body is something we will never be able to come to terms with."
