Claire Gray jailed for life for killing brother Ashley

A County Durham woman who killed her brother so she could go back to jail has been sentenced to life in prison.

Claire Gray, 22, from Coniston Road, Ferryhill, will serve a minimum of 12 years after she pleaded guilty to murder at Teesside Crown Court.

Ashley Gray gave her a 13-inch carving knife and dared her to attack someone, saying "go on then", the court heard.

Mr Gray, 24, died from a stab wound to the chest on 14 October. Judge Peter Fox QC said it was a "tragic case".
