Following Buchanan’s conviction, Detective Sergeant Ian Evans said: “There is no doubt that this is an extremely difficult and traumatic time for Darrell’s family.
“They live each day without her and are devastated by what has happened. He is now being held responsible and I sincerely hope Darrell’s family feels some sense of justice at the court outcome today.
“We remain committed to fighting abuse at every level. I would encourage anyone who is suffering at the hands of an abuser to contact us, we will support you and do everything we can to ensure the perpetrator is held to account.”
Buchanan will be sentenced at a later date.
