A pathologist has described a catalogue of injuries on the body | :00:07. | :00:11. | |
of a two year old boy who died at a house in Fife. | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
He told a murder trial Liam Fee probably died when his heart | :00:15. | :00:16. | |
Liam's mother and partner deny killing him. | :00:17. | :00:22. | |
You may find some of the details in Joanne Macaulay's report | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
A postmortem on Liam Fee was carried out two days after his death when he | :00:26. | :00:40. | |
was living at this house. Today the pathologist in charge described | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
multiple external and internal injuries on his body. Doctor French | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
told the court the injuries were not the result of a usual rough and | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
tumble of a toddler but were caused by blunt force trauma. There were | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
numerous bruises and abrasions on his body and there was evidence of a | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
ruptured intestinal which Doctor French said would have caused | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
obvious pain. He also had a fractured upper arm and leg. The | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
prosecutor asked about the broken thigh bone. Would that be painful | :01:11. | :01:11. | |
for Liam? Doctor French said it was most | :01:12. | :01:35. | |
likely that Liam was killed by a blow to the torso which caused the | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
child's hearts to rupture and bleed leading to rapid death. Liam's | :01:41. | :01:48. | |
mother Rachel Fee and her partner Nyomi Fee deny all charges. | :01:49. | :01:54. | |
Practical exams due to be held this week have been postponed at the five | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
Edinburgh High schools affected by the building closures crisis. | :01:59. | :01:59. | |
Six of the 17 affected schools partially reopened this | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
morning but almost 5,000 pupils were off for a third day. | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
A delayed first back and not at the usual school. Hundreds of grey smart | :02:06. | :02:26. | |
people's art at another school. Temporary classrooms are set up | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
where possible. Practical elements of exams at the five affected high | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
schools will not go ahead as planned this week. We have been in | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
constructive dialogue with the Scottish qualifications authority | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
who have knocked back the deadlines for some of the work that needs to | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
be submitted from this week to next week and beyond if required. Other | :02:51. | :02:56. | |
primaries affected were also able to resume classes. We went to the | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
cinema with our friends together and it was lots of fun. How worried are | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
you that you were not at your own school? Just a little bit. Saint | :03:09. | :03:15. | |
Peters is one of the schools shut because of building safety. We have | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
concerns that they will be out of the building for a long time | :03:20. | :03:21. | |
concerns that they will be out of concerns that we don't know how safe | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
the buildings. What else could be wrong? Some people stop being taken | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
to temporary classrooms and others are still waiting to hear on the | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
final arrangements for them so that all schools can have some kind of | :03:35. | :03:36. | |
teaching provision restored by next all schools can have some kind of | :03:37. | :03:44. | |
Tuesday at the latest. Some farmers have been approaching food banks | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
because of the school closures. They have been looking for tinned beans, | :03:48. | :03:56. | |
Tim beans and veg and they are struggling with having to cater for | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
the children over this extended period. Dance classes classes | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
prompting concern that children are missing out. With further disruption | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
ahead, many businesses are counting the cost. We have a large dams team | :04:10. | :04:16. | |
and if they don't work, they don't get paid. If we are not getting | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
paid, we can't afford to pay them. Questions mounts about the | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
compensation claims although most peoples know when they will get | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
behind the desks, there is no indication on when this disruption | :04:32. | :04:32. | |
will end. A trial has begun of five men, | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
now in their 60s and 70s accused of sexually and physically | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
abusing boys who were in their care at the St Ninians School in Falkland | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
in Fife in the 1970s and 80s. In total they face 121 charges | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
of abusing 35 pupils who were aged from | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
11-years-old to 16. Most of the allegations concern | :04:48. | :04:48. | |
seventy three year old John Farrell All the men deny the | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
charges against them. A man has appeared in court charged | :04:52. | :05:00. | |
with murder after the death of a man Shahzad Shah, who was 56, | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
died following an incident at an Indian takeaway | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
in Mintlaw on Monday. Hidayet Ozden, who was 52, | :05:08. | :05:09. | |
of Falkirk, appeared at Peterhead Sheriff Court charged | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
with murder and assault. He made no plea or declaration | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
and was remanded in custody. The Scottish Conservatives say | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
they're out to overhaul Labour and replace them as the main | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
opposition to the SNP at Holyrood. Launching their manifesto, | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
the party leader, Ruth Davidson, forecast voters will turn | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
to the Tories because of their pledges to hold down tax | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
and defend the Union. This from our political | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
editor Brian Taylor. This is not a normal election. She | :05:38. | :05:51. | |
expects the SNP to win and is campaigning to come second to lead | :05:52. | :05:58. | |
the opposition. Herbig page is to defend the union positively. The | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
case for independence is dead. The case that the union must now be | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
made. The Conservatives would scrap the named person team monitoring | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
each child. On energy they are pro-nuclear and pro-fracking. They | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
would freeze business rates and leave income tax the same as in the | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
UK. They would raise money and would phase in prescription charges for | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
those who can pay. They would charge graduates up to ?6,000 after they | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
are earning 20000 and they support ending the council tax freeze | :06:32. | :06:37. | |
capping increases of 3%. The Conservatives are planning increased | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
spending on the NHS with a renewed focus on mental health. They are | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
promising more freedom for schools with extra Casper currencies -- cash | :06:46. | :06:56. | |
for colleges. Tactically the aim is to overhaul Labour as the main | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
opposition to the SNP. If we are looking to have a third time at this | :07:02. | :07:07. | |
SNP government, let us change the opposition because something has to | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
change. I can be the strong opposition that people need and can | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
hold the Scottish Government to account, to make sure they are put | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
under pressure. We desperately need them to be to have a better | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
government and better legislation coming out of the Scottish | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
parliament. The strategy is to attract all those who said no at | :07:27. | :07:33. | |
independence, to convince them to be Unionists and conservative. | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
There's been a warning that last ditch efforts to save the Scottish | :07:37. | :07:38. | |
wildcat from extinction are at risk, because of conflict between rival | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
Our environment correspondent, David Miller, reports. | :07:42. | :07:50. | |
The Scottish wildcat. It is rare and at risk. The focus of intense | :07:51. | :07:58. | |
efforts by conservationists working to ensure its survival. One of the | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
biggest threats is crossbreeding with domestic cats. This application | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
for a trapping license released under Freedom of information rules | :08:08. | :08:09. | |
states... Wildcat Haven says Betty is barbaric | :08:10. | :08:25. | |
and unnecessary. The Royal zoological Society of Scotland which | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
may be application has accused the group of using underhand and | :08:30. | :08:37. | |
distorting info to mislead the public. They kill them by shooting. | :08:38. | :08:45. | |
We are advocating using cage trapping so there is far less risk | :08:46. | :08:51. | |
of wild cats being shot. Neutering of feral cats is seen as an | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
important and humane way to prevent crossbreeding but with only a tiny | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
population of wild cats remaining, is it enough? Conservation breeding | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
is important as well as protecting the habitat and making sure there is | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
sufficient habitats for Wildcats and preventing any accidents -- | :09:10. | :09:15. | |
accidental persecution. It requires a team effort and a sustained effort | :09:16. | :09:16. | |
over many years. Researchers and engineers scouring | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
Loch Ness for evidence of Nessie have this week made a dramatic | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
discovery - they've It is one of the strangest creatures | :09:24. | :09:38. | |
to emerge from the murky waters of the world-famous lark. No humps and | :09:39. | :09:46. | |
no dinosaur's head. Instead a robot costing $200 million and equipped | :09:47. | :09:49. | |
with the best sonar technology money can buy. Every expedition that comes | :09:50. | :09:57. | |
here says they have the most sophisticated equipment. In this | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
case, it is very, very true. It provided the best images of the | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
walls of the depths of Loch Ness. She has also discovered a monster, | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
albeit a massive model which sank in 1969 during the filming of a | :10:16. | :10:21. | |
Sherlock Holmes movie starring Christopher Lee. They had a large | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
pot with tanks below and towed it into the loch and you got this | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
beautiful Loch Ness Monster out. They lost control of it and they had | :10:33. | :10:39. | |
to cut her free. One kilometre from here, she has been lost ever since. | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
Few experts feel this is a war to read Jurassic Park. But they are | :10:46. | :10:52. | |
keen to investigate why so many people apparently do. Those behind | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
this project is believed that already they have disproved the | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
theory that there is a long trench in the lock. But disproving the | :11:01. | :11:09. | |
existence of Nessie herself, well, that may be altogether a tougher nut | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
to crack. Much of eastern and south-eastern | :11:13. | :11:31. | |
Scotland was wet today. Today it ended with a drying up and that will | :11:32. | :11:39. | |
lead to frost for sheltered areas. As we head into tomorrow morning, | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
sunlight and patchy rain holding on across the south-east. A dry start | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
across the south-west and much of the Central belt. The best of the | :11:49. | :11:53. | |
brightest weather with some sunshine tomorrow morning will be found | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
across the North. A chilly start for some inland parts of the Highlands | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
and the north-east. As we head through the course of the day, | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
across the North, we will continue to see the driest and brightest | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
weather with some spells of sunshine. Cloudy across southern and | :12:13. | :12:15. | |
central areas with one or two showers. Love and Celsius where we | :12:16. | :12:23. | |
see the sunshine. Across the rest of the UK, a drier datacom than we have | :12:24. | :12:30. | |
had of late. For much of Wales, the Midlands and East Anglia, some | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
potent thundery showers once again. Across the southern counties, dry | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
after a wet start and a band of rain moving into the Channel Islands, the | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
Isles of Scilly and across southern Cornwall. Some real temperature | :12:46. | :12:52. | |
contrast. 17 or 18 Celsius across London and 10 degrees cooler where | :12:53. | :12:55. | |
we hold offices -- where we hold onto some cloud in Scotland. Into | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
tomorrow evening and we see this rain pushing into the far south of | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
England and at the same time we will begin to see this cold front pushing | :13:05. | :13:07. | |
into the North of Scotland tomorrow night. Colder air follows that by | :13:08. | :13:14. | |
Friday morning, we may some wintry showers to lower levels. Feeling | :13:15. | :13:21. | |
bitterly cold. That is the forecast. Our next update is during Breakfast | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
at 6:25 tomorrow morning. But, from everyone | :13:26. | :13:28. | |
on the late team - goodnight. | :13:29. | :13:31. |
