Man sentenced to life imprisonment for killing wife in North Rhine-Westphalia
A court in North Rhine-Westphalia has sentenced a 27-year-old defendant to a life sentence for the violent death of his wife. The fatal events took place in the couple's shared flat.
Shortly before the act, the man is said to have become violent towards his wife. He then went to his car. There was a confrontation with a third party, as the intoxicated defendant had mistaken the witness's car for his own. The officers who were called arrived and found blood on the man's hands and also noticed that his wife had injuries. They subsequently barred the 27-year-old from the flat.
The car key remained with the wife. The criminal court was convinced that the convicted man secretly re-entered the flat during the same night. There, the conflict escalated again. The man demanded that his wife return the key. Subsequently, he struck her several times. The injuries she sustained proved fatal.
