THE family of a woman murdered in her own home in Glasgow last year has lodged a petition calling for longer prison sentences for violent re-offenders.
Isabelle Sanders, 51, was stabbed to death by Paul McManus, 20, during a robbery at her home in Crookston.
McManus was given a life sentence with a minimum term of 26 years.
Ms Sanders' brother James Dougall said whole life terms would protect the public from violent criminals.
