A man has been jailed after murdering his partner and trying to conceal her death in his flat. Lisa Paris, 54, was found by emergency services with 70 bruises across her head, neck, body, arms and legs.

She was killed by 62-year-old Mark Fitzgerald who has now been put behind bars for life with a minimum term of 21 years and 168 days. He was sentenced at Plymouth Crown Court after being found guilty of murdering Ms Paris in March 24.

Her body had been left hidden under blankets and bedding.
