THE man who murdered Salisbury City FC steward Paula Poolton is due to be sentenced at the Old Bailey in London today.
Mrs Poolton, 40, of Course Park Crescent, Titchfield, was last seen on October 17, 2008. Her body was found 11 days later in the boot of her car.
Roger Kearney, 57, of Painswick Close, Sarisbury Green, had been having a three-month affair with Mrs Poolton and killed her after she threatened to reveal their relationship.
Following the six-week trial, jurors at Winchester Crown Court took 12 hours to find him guilty of murder.
