A CRAZED man who attacked his ex-girlfriend’s elderly parents with a chainsaw days after she split up with him has been jailed for 12 years.
James MacDonald almost hacked off John MacPherson’s arm after bursting into the pensioner’s home in Caol and threatening to kill the victim’s daughter, Tracey.
The High Court in Edinburgh heard how the 48-yearold stood in the family’s living room revving the chainsaw before turning it on 74-yearold Mr MacPherson’s terrified wife, Flora.
