Swansea tenant guilty of murdering his landlord

A Swansea tenant has been convicted of murdering his landlord. 

David Craig Ellis, 41, was found guilty today at Swansea Crown Court.

Swansea Crown Court had heard how David Craig Ellis, 41 had beaten his landlord to death with a hammer before disposing of 59 year old Alec Warburton's body in a old quarry in Dolwyddelan, Conwy.

Ellis put Warburtons body in the boot of his car,  drove 140 miles up the motorway to the unused quarry, where he dumped the body, before making his escape by ferry to Ireland.

Later arrested by the Garda, Ellis confessed to the murder.
