Natalie McNally Murder Trial: Jury Deliberations Begin

0:00On March 23, the jury in the Natalie McNally murder trial has begun deliberations after a four-week case in court. Natalie was beaten, strangled, and stabbed to death in her lurking home on 18 December 2022. She was 15 weeks pregnant at the time. Her 36-year-old boyfriend, Stephen McCullough, faces the murder charge. He admits being the father of her unborn child, but denies any role in the killing. Executers argued he created a fake alibi by pretending to live stream a gaming session on YouTube that night. Meanwhile, the defense pointed to her unnamed former boyfriend as the real suspect. The judge instructed the 12 jurors, six men and six women, to weigh all the circumstantial evidence strands together for a unanimous decision. Eyes now turn to what verdict they'll reach.
