Violent killer who stabbed Scots dad in the neck in frenzied attack jailed for life

A knife attacker who murdered a father-of-three in a brutal street attack after stabbing him in the neck was jailed for life today.
Ryan McCabe was ordered on Monday to serve a minimum of 17 years in prison after killing Liam Maloney, 30, in the fatal assault in the Niddrie area of Edinburgh.

He told McCabe that the 17-year term imposed on him was the minimum period he must serve before he can be considered for release, but any future decision over his release would be taken by parole authorities who take into account the risk he posed at the time.

Mr Maloney later died at St John's Hospital in Livingston, in West Lothian, after contracting a thrombosis following emergency surgery on him.
He underwent an operation after a jugular vein was
