The remains of an Edinburgh woman who has been missing for 15 years

Louise Tiffney was last seen leaving her home in the city's

The remains were found near a country house

Louise Tiffney was last seen in 2002. She accompanied her son Sean

Flynn to a court appearance shortly before she disappeared. At the time,

searches were made of the Water of Leith near her home and parts of

East Lothian, but there was no sign of her. Her family made an emotional

plea for information. Hannah is missing you. We miss and love you.

Louise, please let us know where you are and that you are safe. In 2005,

Sean Flynn went on trial for his mother's murder. At the High Court

in Perth, the charge against him was found not proven. Louise's family

was left distraught. She is dead and there is no doubt about that. Her

name has been dragged through the mud by her son and by his father.

After more than a decade, Sunday brought a major development in the

case. Human remains were found by a cyclist on the road in the entrance

to Gosford house in Longniddry. Police had suspected they were the

remains of Louise Tiffney. Today came the confirmation. We can now

confirm the remains found out that of Louise Tiffney. It was a long and

the Boris process and a painstaking process to get to the stage but we

are now entirely satisfied the remains of the person found that of

Louise Tiffney. Police say there are still more to do in the search for

answers. Today they again still more to do in the search for

this always and continues to be a murder investigation. Andrew Black,

Reporting Scotland, Edinburgh. A drunk driver who killed a woman

on the Isle of Mull while driving a high-performance car has been

jailed for 12 years. Thomas Wainwright was on the wrong

side of the road and travelling Theresa Wade was 29 years old when

she died. She had been a vet on the Isle of Mull. The job she had always

wanted. On the 20th of October 2015, she was driving home in her van. She

never arrived. Our partner of ten years, who also worked with her in

the surgery, answered the door to police. When the police arrived,

they informed me, they gave me the preludes to that news and asked me

to sit down, at half past four in the morning, I knew something

that'll had happened. And when they told me, I felt like I had been hit

by a sledgehammer. Thomas Wainwright was drunk, he had been driving speed

of up to 95 mph on the wrong side of the road. He had been drinking beer

and cider for eight and a half hours since the morning. When he left this

pub, a concerned member of the public asked him who was driving.

Wainwright says the car knew its own way home and said he had a clear

head. During the trial, he tried to blame Theresa Wade for the crash.

Sentencing, the judge said he found some difficulty in finding any

mitigating factors in this case. He said Thomas Wainwright had shown no

remorse for his actions and the arrogance he had shown while giving

evidence was quite staggering. He sentenced him to 12 years in prison

and banned him from driving for 15 years. Outside court, Theresa Wade's

partner paid tribute to her. Theresa was my best friend. She was the

kindest, kindest of soul mates. She was the most compassionate people.

She was a caring veterinary surgeon, she was professional and although

she did, she was a dedicated person. Thomas Wainwright lived in the South

of France but had been on Mull to visit his sick grandmother when the

crash happened. He had a previous conviction. He was fined 700 euros

in micro while driving through drink or drugs. Theresa May directories

with's partner has said the sentence will not bring her back but

with's partner has said the sentence Wainwright has 12 years to reflect

on what he has. -- Theresa Wade. Relations between management

met the former US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton,

in New York last night. They chatted backstage at the Women

in the World conference, where they each gave

separate live interviews. From New York, here's our political

correspondent, Glenn Campbell. They welcomed her like a celebrity,

and the interviewer invited her to comment on the US election.

President Trump is the President of the United States and I respect

that. She took care not to renew her criticism. I am here as a guest of

the United States just now. But I want to be allowed back in in

future! But she praised Germany's Angela Merkel for standing up to the

President and heaped praise on his defeated rival, who she met

backstage. I look at Hillary, and she has been a trailblazer for women

in politics, whatever you think she has been a trailblazer for women

about her politics, but she had made it easier for women like me in

politics and opening for that, I and women across the world really owe

Hillary Clinton a debt of gratitude. The First Minister was asked to

explain why Holyrood has three female leaders. Something in the

water! Or something in the whisky, perhaps. And to describe a

relationship with Theresa May. -- her relationship. We both like

relationship with Theresa May. -- shoes, which is a good starting

point! She criticised the treatment of female politicians in the media

after this front page. So, this tendency to reduce women to body

parts or what they wear or what their hair looks like, it is not

innocent and it is not something we should laugh off, it is a deliberate

attempt to demean women. Overall, her contribution was well received.

She was actually my favourite person speaking today. My God, perfect! She

was really good, I loved watching her to say, you know. We need more

women like her. Yeah, I loved her. Overseas endorsement for a

politician build here as Queen of Scots.

Let's get the weather now with Kawser.

Good evening. It has not been a bad night supper. Mostly dry with clear

skies. We had this lovely picture of the sunset earlier in Fife. Mostly

dry and the cloud will continue to break, allowing clearer spells,

especially for a more central and eastern areas. Across the far North

and north-west, staying cloudy and damp with freshening south-westerly

winds and maybe some mist along the Solway coast. But by nine in the

morning, some of these bills of sunshine. Although it stays cloudy

for Shetland, the Northwest, for much of the day. The best of the

sunshine along the East coast. But for more central areas and the South

West, some lovely spells developing. The mist clearing from the Solway

and temperatures in the morning six to seven sources. A chilly start in

eastern parts with some frost were sheltered areas. During the day, the

cloud continues to fin handbrake, some pleasant sunshine with light

winds could so feeling quite warm especially by the afternoon. It is

not just us enjoying the sunshine, not much in the way of cloud in the

sky, temperatures reaching the high teens or low 20s. North-eastern part

of Scotland, maybe 17 to 19 is possible. Turning colder under the

cloud across the Northwest. There is a change as we look ahead up to

Saturday night into Sunday. This allows the weather front to push

through, bringing some fabrics of rain. Strengthening north-westerly

winds, cooler conditions to follow. For Sunday, dry start, but rain

pushing in, heavy at times.
