A man has been found guilty of the manslaughter of a woman whose body was dumped in a woodland grave, but has been cleared of her murder.
Mohammed Durnion, 42, had denied killing Reanne Coulson, 33, claiming she died from an overdose after an argument at his flat on Paynes Lane, Coventry, in May last year.
Jurors at Warwick Crown Court heard Durnion, a labourer, strangled the mother-of-two before disposing of her body.
Prosecutors had alleged the defendant killed Coulson in a sudden and deliberate attack, then invented a mental health crisis when police arrived minutes later.
