A witness in the trial of four men accused of murdering a missing businesswoman told a court she ended up in a psychiatric unit after hearing snippets of a conversation about a woman being held at a house.
Laura Main, 23, said Paul Smith and David Parker arrived at the home she shared with her then partner, Ian Clyde, 24, late in the evening of April 17, 2011.
She said Smith seemed agitated, was unshaven and drunk. The dental nurse told jurors she heard bits of a conversation Smith had with Mr Clyde about a woman being held at a house in West Kilbride, North Ayrshire.
