A man has been found guilty of murdering his landlady, former Didcot woman Carol Evans.

Peter Airey, 28, killed Miss Evans, 40, with a hammer and hid her body in an outhouse at the home they shared in Peterborough, a court heard.

The jury at Northampton Crown Court was told he killed Miss Evans after an argument erupted over money he was stealing from her bank account.

Airey had denied murder and claimed he found Miss Evans lying in a pool of blood.
