Woman killed by husband over Facebook marital status

January 24, 2009

Ah, those Brits and knives, and thanks to the Daily Mail.

A father stabbed his estranged wife to death in a ‘frenzied attack’ after discovering she had changed her Facebook status to ’single’.

Edward Richardson, 41, was high on a cocktail of cocaine and alcohol when he smashed his way into her parents’ home and used a carving knife to kill 26-year-old Sarah Richardson as she lay in bed.

The carpenter stabbed his wife with such force he shattered her ribs. She also suffered puncture wounds to her liver and a slashed aorta.
