The stepson of a British woman who had recently married an American psychologist will be charged with her murder when he is released from hospital, US police have said.
Tracy Brannan, 33, originally from Glasgow, died after she was stabbed to death at the Omaha, Nebraska, home she shared with her husband Harold, 60, who was also injured.
The stepson, David Brannan, 21, is then understood to have stabbed himself. All three were taken to Nebraska Medical Centre after the incident in the early hours of Saturday.
An Omaha Police Department spokesman said: "David Brannan is still in the hospital for treatment of his injuries.
"Once he is released from the hospital, he will be charged for the murder of Tracy Brannan, and the felony assault of Harold Brannan.
"It has been determined that David Brannan's injuries were self-inflicted."
Police were called to the scene in South 122nd Avenue at 4.40am on July 24 and found three people with various stab and cutting injuries.
Mrs Brannan died after being taken to hospital while her husband was released after treatment.
Mrs Brannan, born Tracy Wyatt, married Mr Brannan in May.
