A man who was convicted of killing his abused wife after she jumped from a motorway bridge has been jailed for eight years.
Kimberly Milne died aged 28 after being struck by multiple vehicles on the A90 in Dundee in July 2023.
In the first prosecution of its kind in Scotland, Lee Milne was convicted of culpable homicide. The jury found him responsible even though his wife had jumped to her death.
Police said Kimberly was “clearly terrified” of 40-year-old Milne, and that her death was the result of her taking “a course of action to get away from him”.
Milne was also found guilty of a separate charge of domestic abuse at several properties in the city.
Prosecutors said Kimberly had suffered significant violence at the hands of Milne in the 18 months prior to her death.
This included choking, grabbing her by the hair, striking her, shouting and swearing.
