A man who murdered a 71-year-old woman after she mistook his home for a B&B and got into his bed, has been jailed for 14 years.

Margaret Barnes, from Birmingham, died after being attacked in July 2022 while she was visiting Barmouth, Gwynedd.

David Redfern, 46, was given a life sentence at Caernarfon Crown Court and will serve a minimum of 14 years.

Margaret Barnes' daughter, Natalie Barnes, told the court her murder had "completely destroyed our family life".

Redfern found Mrs Barnes asleep in his bed and dragged her downstairs before kicking and stamping her to death.
