SA man again found guilty of murder A MAN has again been found guilty of the bashing murder of his girlfriend on a South Australian camping trip. In September last year, Justice Timothy Anderson found Jason Lee Gardiner, 33, guilty of murdering Katherine Towner, 29, at a secluded area of Strathalbyn, south of Adelaide, in April 2011. The badly beaten body of Ms Towner, who had 30 different injuries including a split liver, rib fractures and brain damage, was found decomposing in her car. After being jailed for at least 23 years, Gardiner was granted a retrial which was presided over by Justice Trish Kelly. On Tuesday she found him guilty of murder and set his sentencing hearing down for January 30. Gardiner had claimed he must have been so drunk that he was incapable of forming the necessary intent for the murder charge.
