Murder of Yvonne Gilford
Yvonne Gilford was an Australian nurse who was murdered in the King Fahd Military Medical Complex, Dharhan, Saudi Arabia on December 12, 1996.
Two British nurses, Deborah Parry and Lucille "Lucy" McLauchlan, were arrested for the crime. Parry confessed to being the murderer and McLauchlan to being an accessory, though both subsequently claimed to have been coerced into signing the confession. Parry was sentenced to death by beheading, and McLauchlan to eight years' imprisonment and 500 lashes. Parry's sentence was reduced to life imprisonment after Gilford's elder brother Frank accepted a "blood money" payment of approximately £750,000, and both sentences were eventually commuted to time served after personal intervention from King Fahd.

Yvonne Gilford grew up on a farm in Jamestown, South Australia, along with her parents and her only sibling, Frank. She became a nurse at the age of 28 and initially worked in Auckland, before moving onto London in 1973, and then Johannesburg in 1976. After working in various hospitals in the city for the next 20 years, she accepted a new job in Dhahran in April 1996, and moved to Saudi Arabia, with her ultimate aim being to earn enough money to retire from nursing and return to Australia. She initially found herself with few colleagues who spoke English, and rapidly befriended Parry and McLauchlan after they arrived in Dhahran in August of that year.〔(People Magazine )〕 For Parry it was her second time working in the country, having previously worked there between 1993 and 1994, while it was McLauchlan's first time working abroad, having been dismissed from her previous job for credit card fraud. It subsequently emerged she had used fraudulent references to obtain the job in Dhahran.〔(The Courier )〕
