TWO men have been jailed for life after being found guilty of the murder of Patrick Butler at HMP Risley.
Aarron Gordon and Marcus Nelson were convicted amid chaotic scenes this afternoon by a jury at Chester Crown Court.
The pair, from Wolverhampton, had tried to blame the attack on three men from a Liverpool drugs gang.
But damning blood stains on their clothes were DNA linked to Butler.
The prosecution suggested Butler was dealing drugs on their wing - a wing where they considered themselves the dealers.
They were given a minimum recommended sentence of 15 years.
