Amanda Leiper killed in Aberdeen over 'lazy' comment

A mother-of-five was battered to death in Aberdeen after she called her friend "lazy", a court has heard. Anne-Marie Mullen, 24, admitted slapping and kicking Amanda Leiper, 38, to her severe injury and Alix Wilson, 21, admitted culpable homicide by kicking her on the head and body. The pair went on trial for murder at the High Court in Aberdeen but they admitted lesser charges during the fourth day of the trial. David Mullen was acquitted of murder. The court heard how Ms Leiper was repeatedly kicked on the head and body after she had an argument with 63-year-old Mr Mullen in his flat. Ms Mullen slapped and kicked Ms Leiper several times. Ms Mullen's female lover Wilson then killed Ms Leiper by kicking her head with such force it "bounced off the wall".
