Man guilty of murdering own mother in Petersfield
Neighbours heard him repeating: 'I've killed her, I've killed her'"
A man has been found guilty of murdering his mother at her home in Petersfield.
It happened in May last year when Anarlyn Jones, previously known as Bronwyn Jones, called police to tell them he had repeatedly stabbed her.
The 26-year-old, of Jacaranda Road in Bordon, claimed his mother had begged him to do it and demons were responsible.
Despite this, the prosecution claimed that Anarlyn had killed his mother in a fit of rage after consuming a 'significant amount of alcohol'.
The jury heard how neighbours saw Anarlyn "clambering up the stairs like something out of a horror film (…) covered head to toe in red (…) carrying a bottle of brandy (…) repeating: 'I've killed her, I've killed her'".
Anarlyn denied that alcohol and anger were the cause and claimed his mother had begged to be killed due to health problems, but then changed her mind during the attack.
However, the court heard that Anna Jones had 'struggled vigorously' for her life.
Anarlyn will be sentenced in January.
