A Falmouth woman whose brother was knifed to death by her former husband has spoken for the first time about the "monster who runied her life."

Teaching assistant Debbie Finlay - known as Debbie Price while under police protection - is the wife of Gary Finlay, who on Friday was sentenced to life for the murder of his former brother-in-law Graham McKenna in Liverpool.

He was also sentenced to another ten years for the repeated stabbing of his 14-year-old nephew Michael.

Following the stabbing Gary Finlay came to Falmouth looking for his ex wife and children, forcing her and her children into hiding under police protection for fear of their lives.

Debbie, a teaching assistant at King Charles Primary School, is finally able to tell her story after her former husband was jailed for at least 25 years following the killing.

To read Debbie's story see today's Packet.
