Killer son who stabbed Scots dad 101 times and filmed him on Twitter ordered to remain in state hospital

A killer son who filmed his dying father on Twitter has been ordered to remain in hospital.
Christopher Gray left Alexander Gray, 73, with 110 wounds following the brutal attack at their home in Falkirk, Stirlingshire on February 23 2021.
The 49 year-old was later discovered by police still clutching a knife while kneeling over the pensioner, who had passed away by then.
Gray had faced a murder charge in December, but was acquitted after prosecutors accepted he was suffering from a mental disorder at the time.
The case called again today at the High Court in Glasgow.
Lady Stacey heard evidence from one doctor and read reports from two other medical professionals all who had dealings with Gray.
The judge today followed the recommendations that she impose compulsion and restriction orders for Gray to remain at the State Hospital at Carstairs.
The hearing was told it was concluded Gray suffers from paranoid schizophrenia.
Lady Stacey told him: "I know that you do not agree with the diagnosis, but that you are prepared to their advice for treatment. You will remain in the state hospital."
The court was told in December how the attack occurred in the morning.
Gray posted the Twitter video with the message "Down with Satan and his minions".
Prosecutor Alan Cameron said: "It showed his father lying on the floor, wheezing heavily and apparently bleeding from his head.
