Donna Marie Brand, 44, killed Caroline along with Robert O'Brien in 1996The jealous love rival of pregnant schoolgirl Caroline Glachan who was murdered after being pelted with bricks and left to drown has been jailed for at least 17 years.
She was pushed or fell into undergrowth and her body was discovered in the river at Place of Bonhill, Renton, West Dunbartonshire, later the same day, which was her mother's 40th birthday. The schoolgirl had known 'violent' 18-year-old Robert O'Brien for just two months before he, Brand, and Kelly, lured her to a bridge near the towpath beside the River Leven and killed her.
Ms McFetridge told the trial she initially did not believe Caroline, but accompanied her to a pregnancy test which came back positive.
