Stephen McCullagh will do at least 31 years of jail time before he is even considered for release.

32-year-old Natalie McNally had been 15 weeks pregnant when she was subjected to a violent attack and murdered at her home in Lurgan in December 2022.

The judge, Mr Justice Kinney, told McCullagh that he committed a “brutal senseless murder and planned it in remorseless detail.”

“The killing was cold blooded and calculated.”

McCullagh tried to pin the murder on Lewis Jones, Natalie’s ex-partner, after having set up a false alibi.

But the jury rejected that and found McCullagh guilty of the murder at Belfast Crown Court earlier this year.

Kurtis Reid was in court for the tariff hearing.
