Mary McLaughlin case: Strangled woman’s trusting nature ultimately brought her death, trial told
The "friendly and trusting" nature of a mother-of-11 strangled to death inside her own flat "ultimately brought about her death", a court has heard.
Mary McLaughlin, 58, was found dead at her home in Partick in Glasgow's west end in October 1984 after enjoying a night out at bars playing dominoes, the High Court in Glasgow has heard.
Graham McGill, 59, denies murdering her and fastening a belt from her dressing gown around her throat with intent to rape on September 26 or 27 that year.
