AN emotional Georgina Lochrane has left the High Court in Glasgow after 16-year-old Aaron Campbell was locked up for a minimum of 27 years for the rape and murder of her daughter.
Alesha's body was found in woods on the Isle of Bute on July 2 last year, hours after she was reported missing from the house her father shared with his parents and partner on the island.
