Lauren Dickason now faces a life sentence after being found guilty of murdering her three daughters in 2021.

The jury deliberated for over 13 hours, before reaching a decision by a majority verdict.

The Herald's Anna Leask has been in court for the entire trial, and she says it was an intense few minutes while the verdicts were read.

"Lauren Dickason herself was very calm, very quiet. Her parents were in the back of the court and it was a lot for them- her mother, at least, had been crying since we reassembled to hear that verdict."
