A violent thug has been sentenced to life imprisonment after being convicted of the murder of North Tyneside man Trevor Bishop.

On March 7 last year, police received a report of concern for a man inside an address on Clifton Gardens in Meadow Well.

Emergency services attended the address, where they found 45-year-old Trevor Bishop lying in a pool of his own blood on the living room floor.

He was taken to hospital however, despite the best efforts of medical staff, he sadly died from his injuries two days later.

A review of CCTV from the night of Trevor’s death showed Tony Johnson fleeing the scene after the assault took place.
