William Campbell, 26, stabbed younger brother in chest in front of their mother in garden of Sunderland home

A man who killed his younger brother with a kitchen knife after a trivial, drunken row has been told he must serve at least 21 years in jail.

A court heard that William Campbell, 26, had been binge drinking vodka in the pub for more than five hours on the evening of 17 June last year. His brother Samuel, 24, had drunk at least a bottle of Jim Beam bourbon and was listening to music in the back garden of the family home in Silksworth, Sunderland.
