On March 23, a man in Northern Ireland has been convicted of murdering his pregnant partner after trying to fake an alibi with a video game stream. Steven McCullough, 36, was found guilty of killing 32-year-old Natalie McNally, who was 15 weeks pregnant at her home in Lurgan. County Armour, back in December 2022. Prosecutors showed how McCullough pre-recorded hours of himself playing video games and streamed it live on YouTube that night to make it look like he, was home. Meanwhile, he took a bus to her place and carried out the brutal attack. In court, McNally's family and friends packed the gallery and cheered loudly when the verdict came down after just two hours of jury deliberations. McCullough stood stone-faced in the dock as it was read out. The trial lasted five weeks at Belfast Crown Court, where a jury of six men and six women heard all the evidence against him. This conviction brings some justice for Natalie and her unborn child, closing a painful chapter for her loved ones as sentencing looms
