A HEARTBROKEN mother has told how her "lonely and vulnerable" son was murdered by a sex worker he had befriended and helped out.
Callous Elizabeth Ann Sweeney battered Neil Jolly to death using a number of different implements, including a kettle.
The drug addict then waited three days before the 49-year-old's body was discovered inside his Aberdeen flat.
