Constable Noel Maitland has been sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder of his girlfriend, 24-year-old Donna-Lee Donaldson.

The social media influencer was reported missing in July 2022 and presumed dead by investigators.

Maitland was found guilty of Donaldson’s murder and preventing the lawful burial of her corpse on January 22.

Presiding Judge Leighton Pusey handed down the sentence a short while ago in the Home Circuit Division of the Supreme Court.

Maitland will be eligible for parole after serving 32 years and 4 months in prison.
