Shane O'Brien slashed 21-year-old Josh Hanson's neck in an act of "pitiless savagery" at a west London bar before fleeing the country in a private plane in 2015. Council worker Mr Hanson clutched his neck as his horrified girlfriend watched blood pour out of a 37cm (14.5ins) gaping wound from his left ear to right chest. (Image: GetwestLondon /WS)At bar closing time, he approached Mr Hanson, asking him "what's your problem?" O'Brien, who fled the country in a private plane shortly after the killing in October 2015, stared ahead and showed no emotion as the guilty verdict was returned. After an international manhunt O'Brien was finally arrested in Romania on March 23 and brought back to Britain on April 5.
