Here, on BBC One, it's time for the news where you are. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
A sandwich shop owner has been jailed for at least 27 years | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
for the murder of 15-year-old Paige Doherty. | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
John Leathem carried out a frenzied knife attack on the teenager | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
in the back of his shop in Clydebank inflicting more than 140 injuries. | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
Paige's mother described Leatham as a monster who had carried out | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
From the High Court in Glasgow, Aileen Clarke reports. | :00:26. | :00:33. | |
A family left heartbroken and devastated by the loss | :00:34. | :00:35. | |
of their daughter, but today they said they saw justice | :00:36. | :00:37. | |
Today we see a monster put behind bars for the unthinkable | :00:38. | :00:44. | |
brutal crime he committed against our daughter Paige. | :00:45. | :00:46. | |
A beautiful 15-year-old with a full life ahead of her and a mass | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
of family and friends left to carry on with her no longer here. | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
There is no sentence high enough to justify what has happened, | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
but we can now say there is one less evil man in this world, | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
which then makes it that bit more safer for our kids to grow up in. | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
John Leathem ran a deli in Clydebank. | :01:05. | :01:06. | |
Here he is opening up on a Saturday morning in March. | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
CCTV outside shows Paige Doherty popping in for a roll and sausage | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
She was on her way to her Saturday hairdressing job but she didn't | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
Within ten minutes of her buying that roll, John Leathem had | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
taken her through to the back and killed her. | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
He stabbed Paige more than 146 times. | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
CCTV showed him in a white T-shirt and trainers, running to a shop | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
next door to buy wipes and bin bags to clean up. | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
He went out to his car and opened the boot. | :01:37. | :01:38. | |
The next thing he did was carry Paige's body out | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
He put her in the boot and closed it. | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
Two days later, he dumped Paige's body just off this busy dual | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
The only explanation that Leathem offered the court for that savage | :01:50. | :01:58. | |
attack he launched on Paige just moments after she got | :01:59. | :02:00. | |
here was that she wanted to work here and they had fallen out | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
about it, but he didn't tell that to the police and the police heard | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
nothing from Paige's friends or family to back that up. | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
What he did tell the police, however, was that he was positive | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
they would not find any trace of Paige's blood here. | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
Well, he was wrong, they did, in the shop and also in the boot | :02:19. | :02:21. | |
No evidence of any motive has been put before me to explain | :02:22. | :02:29. | |
You must have struck the victim in excess of 146 times with a knife, | :02:30. | :02:39. | |
which on your account just happened to be handy in the back room | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
What you did was truly reprehensible. | :02:43. | :02:52. | |
It is impossible to comprehend how an apparently happily married man, | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
with a young child, who is running a successful business, | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
is capable of such an horrific level of violence. | :03:00. | :03:07. | |
After Lady Rae sentenced Leathem to a minimum term | :03:08. | :03:09. | |
of 27 years in jail, the court room which | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
Friends and family of Paige shouted "beast" and "monster" and one woman | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
relative banged on the side of the dock screaming, | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
Leathem didn't look up, he didn't look at them, | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
he kept his eyes on the floor as he was led downstairs | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
There's a huge piece missing in our family that can | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
I am thankful for the 15 years we had with Paige, from the kind | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
and generous wee soul she was to the mature young woman | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
She may not be with us any more but she will live | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
on through her brothers and sister and through all the | :03:47. | :03:48. | |
People in Scotland are to be asked to look out for signs that a person | :03:49. | :03:58. | |
has been trafficked and also consider whether goods they're | :03:59. | :04:00. | |
buying have been made by someone forced to work against their will. | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
It's part of a new strategy to address the problem | :04:05. | :04:06. | |
as figures show an increase in human trafficking here. | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
More from our political correspondent, Lucy Adams. | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
This man was trafficked to Scotland from Vietnam this year | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
after his brother was involved in an investment that went wrong. | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
TRANSLATION: The gangster said they would kill my family | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
if we could not pay back my brother's debt. | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
My brother was killed as a warning, and for my family's safety, | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
The Scottish Government want people to wake up to the fact that human | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
It could be in remote rural areas or in high streets like this one. | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
Last year there were 145 victims identified, a 30% increase | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
Now they want customers to think about whether there could be | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
victims of trafficking in their local nail bar, | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
in their local shops, or indeed, in their car wash. | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
A key part of this strategy is to raise the whole issue | :05:03. | :05:05. | |
of human trafficking into the public's consciousness. | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
Many people will think this is something that doesn't affect | :05:10. | :05:11. | |
them or isn't happening within their community, | :05:12. | :05:13. | |
What we want to do is make people more aware of the risk of human | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
trafficking and if they have information or suspect | :05:20. | :05:21. | |
it is happening, then to share that concern with the police so it can | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
The strategy says there is a strong presumption against prosecution | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
where victims have been forced to commit crimes such as working | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
in cannabis factories, however the BBC understands some | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
victims have faced charges regardless. | :05:39. | :05:42. | |
The strategy is not enough in itself. | :05:43. | :05:44. | |
Awareness raising is a necessary first step, but there | :05:45. | :05:46. | |
By that I mean that the strategy needs to lead to actions | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
in our public services to identify and root out trafficking | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
as well as within our communities as well. | :05:54. | :05:55. | |
Without that whole society effort and that relentless proactivity | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
in our communities and public services, then we won't get | :06:00. | :06:02. | |
underneath this and we won't be able to identify those who really | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
Human trafficking is set to increase further because of | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
The new strategy has been welcomed but experts say everyone involved | :06:09. | :06:18. | |
needs to ensure its being implemented on the ground. | :06:19. | :06:20. | |
Donald Trump's two Scottish golf courses together lost | :06:21. | :06:27. | |
about ?9.5 million last year, according to accounts filed | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
The Trump Turnberry golf resort in Ayrshire, which the US | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
presidential hopeful bought for an undisclosed sum in 2014, | :06:37. | :06:38. | |
Mr Trump's other Scottish course - Menie in Aberdeenshire - | :06:39. | :06:45. | |
The American has said he would invest ?200 million | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
in Turnberry, having bought the resort from | :06:50. | :06:50. | |
NHS Lothian says there is one more confirmed case of measles | :06:51. | :06:58. | |
The total number of patients in the current minor | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
Most of those affected by the virus are students | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
at Edinburgh University, where special clinics are being set | :07:07. | :07:08. | |
up for anyone who may not have had both doses of the MMR vaccine | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
Output from the Scottish economy grew by 0.4% in the second | :07:12. | :07:19. | |
quarter of this year, according to the latest statistics. | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
That's compared with a growth of 0.7% for the UK | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
It follows no growth in Scotland over the first | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
Rail passengers have been warned to expect disruption ahead | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
of engineering work getting under way across the network. | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
ScotRail said some services were being cancelled, while many | :07:43. | :07:44. | |
Earlier I spoke to our reporter Andrew Black | :07:45. | :07:51. | |
about what the engineering work was for. | :07:52. | :08:02. | |
Scotland is promising a revolution in real services and it wants to | :08:03. | :08:08. | |
improve and make vastly improved services. Firstly it is saying that | :08:09. | :08:14. | |
passengers will have to experience some pain. The rail operator ball | :08:15. | :08:17. | |
start the latest round of engineering works which will affect | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
services in Central Scotland, including the services which runs | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
here from Glasgow Queen Street station. That begins on weekends | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
from the 22nd of October and continues into the 20th of November. | :08:33. | :08:38. | |
There were no direct trains between Glasgow and Dunblane and Edinburgh | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
and stumbling, that is one of the big changes but other changes exist | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
as well and some services will be cancelled, some will be replaced by | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
buses and it will probably need tuning systems at Key stations as | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
well. ScotRail have suggested passengers look at the alternative | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
pin cable that has been put in place before travelling. Earlier I spoke | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
to the boss of ScotRail and he told me that the work they were carrying | :09:05. | :09:10. | |
it was vital. We have got a huge workload that must be completed to | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
bring in this faster, greener and longer electric trains next year. | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
bring in this faster, greener and Part of this is the new -- the | :09:19. | :09:20. | |
renewal of tracks and it will happen Part of this is the new -- the | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
over the weekends. The electrification of the line is also | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
necessary. We would ask customers to be patient with us, we understand | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
this has a negative impact on some journeys. The Scottish Government | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
has said that ScotRail's performance this year has not quite been at the | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
level that is expected and that is the backdrop to the announcement | :09:43. | :09:50. | |
today. The Dutch owners have been running the service since last year | :09:51. | :09:52. | |
and says it is determined to make improvements. On the engineering | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
works and ends today, Scott Kriel know that some people will not be | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
works and ends today, Scott Kriel happy but insist this work will | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
transform the rail network in Scotland into one of the best. | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
Passengers will need to endure some short-term pain for long-term gain, | :10:10. | :10:11. | |
the tellers. -- they tell us. A man who died after falling | :10:12. | :10:18. | |
during a climb on the north face of Ben Nevis has been named | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
as Fraser Campbell He was injured on Friday | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
while climbing with another man and airlifted from the scene | :10:24. | :10:26. | |
to hosptal early on Saturday after what rescuers | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
described as a "difficult The next Moderator of the Church | :10:30. | :10:30. | |
of Scotland's General Assembly has called for the Church to respond | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
to changes in society and help bridge gaps between individuals, | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
communities and nations. The Reverend Dr Derek Browning, | :10:38. | :10:39. | |
a minister at Morningside Parish Church in Edinburgh, | :10:40. | :10:41. | |
will take up his position next year. The charge is no longer the same as | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
it was ten, 20, 30, 40 years ago and one of the things I find exciting is | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
the way that the church is embracing different communities, different | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
ways of doing worship but also doing things that people find valuable. We | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
have to be a church that this fit for purpose for the 21st-century. | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
Plans to rebuild the main stand at Tynecastle football stadium have | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
been approved by Edinburgh City Council. | :11:07. | :11:07. | |
?11 million will be spent on the upgrade at the Hearts ground, | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
which will increase its capacity to more than 20,000. | :11:11. | :11:12. | |
The club hopes work will start next month and be finished | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
Let's get the weather now from Judith. | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
Thank you, Jackie. So far, it has been the season of mists and mellow | :11:21. | :11:27. | |
fruitfulness. Things are set to change over the next few days. The | :11:28. | :11:31. | |
high pressure which has been responsible for the dry weather over | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
Scandinavia shrinks away and we will see will pressure pulling him from | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
Spain and France, bringing outbreaks of rain and windy conditions as we | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
head into the rest of the week and the weekend. There are signs of | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
something more settled into next week. As far as tonight is | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
concerned, right across the West of Scotland with clear skies, | :11:51. | :12:00. | |
particularly for Shetland and the North West with showers coming in | :12:01. | :12:02. | |
from the East. Tomorrow will start dry in the West and South. Clearer | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
skies across the North West and possibly a touch of frost first | :12:07. | :12:08. | |
thing, so quite chilly. The showers beginning in the South East. | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
Temperatures will feel chilly with those easterly winds coming from the | :12:13. | :12:15. | |
North Sea and introducing some cooler and cold here. It has been | :12:16. | :12:20. | |
like that across the North with lower temperatures. Lighter winds | :12:21. | :12:23. | |
for Shetland and it looks to be staying fair tomorrow with light | :12:24. | :12:26. | |
winds compared to what the rest of us will see. The East of Scotland | :12:27. | :12:30. | |
will see those showers pick up during the course of the day. Fife | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
and Tayside will get the heavier showers. Very few in the West. The | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
best of the sunshine is across the West and North West Highlands. | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
Further for Northern Ireland and a lot of the UK tomorrow, although we | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
will start to see sunny and dry conditions feeding across the South. | :12:49. | :12:52. | |
Brisk winds across the East coast feeding though showers and it will | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
feel chilly everywhere across the board. Highs of 14 or 15 Celsius at | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
best. Similar values for Scotland with the wind is taking the edge of | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
the temperatures. Showers for the East of Scotland, drier in the West | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
tomorrow, and Friday, we are looking at a windy day with possible gales | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
up towards the North East corner. Heavy showers here as well. Drier | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
across the South and far West and it will feel cooler. That is your | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
forecast. Our next update is during Breakfast | :13:25. | :13:26. | |
tomorrow morning. But from everyone on the | :13:27. | :13:29. | |
late team, goodnight. | :13:30. | :13:33. |
