An Aberdeen man is accused of stabbing his dad to death before putting a knife in his hand. Lewis Webster, 22, allegedly murdered Michael Webster at a property in Bearsden, East Dunbartonshire, on January 27 2022. Prosecutors claim Webster, of Aberdeen, assaulted his father by repeatedly striking him on the head and neck with knives. A separate charge says that while he was conscious of guilt, Webster placed the knife into his father’s hand after he had died. It is said this was done to attempt to defeat the ends of justice. The case called for a hearing at the High Court in Glasgow. Lawyers for Webster pled not guilty on his behalf. A trial was fixed for March 2024 by judge Lady Stacey.
