A man has admitted killing his mother by stabbing her 33 times in the family home in Aberdeen.
Jordan Milne, 26, attacked 59-year-old Carol Milne in Clifton Road in July 2019.
Her body was found by her husband Norman, who was suffering from a terminal brain tumour and later died.
Milne, who was initially charged with murder, admitted culpable homicide at the High Court in Glasgow due to diminished responsibility.
The court heard that in the weeks beforehand Mrs Milne feared for her safety because of her son s aggressive behaviour and constant demands for money.
She called police on 22 June 2019 as she was also worried he might damage her car or the house after she refused him cash.
