A man who murdered his partner in a hammer attack after breaching a court order banning him from going near her has been jailed for life. Joseph Greer, 40, was wearing an electronic tag when he repeatedly struck mum-of-three Samantha Lee at his flat in Aberdeen in January. At the time of the fatal attack, Greer was subject to a court order banning him from approaching the mum. Evidence showed that Greer repeatedly struck her on the head and body with a claw hammer, causing fatal injuries. “Scotland’s prosecutors will continue to use every legal tool available to hold those responsible for domestic abuse to account.”
