SA man found guilty of partner's murder

A South Australian man who strangled his partner and left her body in a car where their two sons were sleeping has been found guilty of the woman's murder.

A jury returned the verdict against Toby Awatere, 36, on Wednesday night after deliberating for 11 hours.

During the Supreme Court trial, the prosecution alleged Awatere killed Jackline Ohide, 27, at their southern Adelaide home in March 2015.

Awatere has been remanded in custody for sentencing submissions on May 3.
