Man pleads guilty to culpable homicide of Edinburgh man Alan Glancy

A man has today pled guilty to the culpable homicide of Edinburgh man Alan Glancy.

47-year-old Paul Ness admitted his responsibility today in court and was convicted.

45-year-old Glancy died after being stabbed in the leg at his flat in the Port Hamilton area of Edinburgh between late January and early February.

Detective Chief Inspector Dave Pinkney of the Major Investigation Team said: “Our thoughts remain with the family and friends of Alan Glancy and I would like to thank them for their assistance throughout our investigation.

“Ness is a dangerous individual who subjected Alan to a level of violence that resulted in the loss of his life.

“Ness has now admitted his actions and although nothing will bring Alan back, we hope this will allow them some closure to this chapter of their lives.”

Ness is due to be sentenced on 11 January 2019 at the High Court in Glasgow
