Tia Landers murder: Couple change plea to guilty

A couple have pleaded guilty to murdering Queensland mother-of-four Tia Landers on the fifth day of their Supreme Court trial.

Linda Eileen Appleton and John Edward Harris had pleaded not guilty to murdering Ms Landers on June 16, 2014 at Brighton when their Brisbane Supreme Court trial started on Monday.
