12 Years For Man Who Killed And Dismembered Friend

A 47-year-old man has been sentenced to life in prison for the manslaughter of his David Guy.

Mr Guy's body was dismembered with the torso, legs and pelvis found in two separate locations along Southsea beach in July 2012.

The rest of Mr Guy's body has never been recovered.

The court had heard that Hilder had used his bicycle to dump mr Guy's body parts.

Winchester Crown Court cleared David Hilder, of Rochmond Road, Southsea, of murder, but convicted him of manslaughter. He will serve a minimum term of 12 years.
