The killer sent a series of photographs of Mr MacLachlan which were described by his own lawyer as being “despicable”
Prosecutors have succeeded in overturning an ‘unduly lenient’ minimum jail term given to a ‘gloating’ murderer who sent photos of his dead victim to others.
Lord Summers told Palfreman, who had previous convictions for violence, that he’d serve a minimum of 12 years before he’d be able to apply for freedom. The judge decided on the term partly because he sought help for Mr MacLachlan three hours after attacking him.issues - the court heard how he was defending himself and was affected by somebody called “Mr Darkside” who lived in his head.
In a written judgement, she wrote: “There was no reasonable basis to conclude that the respondent had acted impulsively, or that his mental health problems had affected his self-control and disposed him to violence. “The trial judge erroneously stated that the respondent admitted his guilt: that is precisely what he did not do. He admitted causing the death, but disputed any criminal responsibility therefor”
Among his other claims, he further alleged:"I have a man in my head called Mr Darkside, who I try not to let out.
