A court has heard how a man stabbed his partner 27 times during a fatal attack at their home in Chirnside in the Borders. Corey Dryden, 31, admitted murdering Megan Hughes at the property on the town's Windram Road in February this year. The High Court in Edinburgh was told police arrested him soon after the assault and took him into custody. Dryden had told police officers he could not remember what he had done.
