Monica Neil said she screamed 'stop it' as her son Colin attacked his father and her husband
A mother told a jury that she screamed as she watched her son kill his father as he repeatedly hit over the head with a hammer.
By that time, Mr Neil’s younger brother had conducted research on their family tree and discovered information which suggested their father had German ancestors, something which ‘seems that that stuck in Colin Neil’s mind’, prosecutors said. Mrs Neil said: “And then leading up to this he was just getting worse, and worrying about these nightmares. He was just getting more and more agitated.”
