A callous drink driver who abandoned his passengers to die after crashing has been jailed.

Jordan Lawrence, 25, fled from a remote country road after a man and a teenage girl were thrown from his car.

Estate worker Lawrence left 37-year-old father-of-three Jonathan Graham and Jasmine Herron, 19, on the shore of Loch Caolisport in Argyll and Bute while he made his way home. 

Their dead bodies were found the following morning by another staff member from the Ormsary Estate, where Mr Graham was head gamekeeper.

Lawrence had been drinking shots of whisky, vodka and gin at a party following a pheasant shoot before crashing on the single track B8024 near Ormsary, in Knapdale, when his car hit a boulder.
