Convicted: 55-year-old receives life imprisonment for killing spouse - Convicted for his wife's murder, a 55-year-old man receives a sentence of life imprisonment.
In a shocking turn of events, a 55-year-old man was slapped with a life imprisonment sentence by the Regional Court in Frankfurt (Oder), Germany. The chilling crime - the gruesome murder of his wife - was reportedly of an aggravated nature, as confirmed by a court spokesperson, which usually means the convict won't see the light of day before serving at least 15 years.
The 50-year-old victim, who had separated from her husband in May of the previous year, continued to share the same roof with him in Rüdersdorf (Märkisch-Oderland). On that fateful night, the 55-year-old allegedly raped his sleeping wife. Citing court records, her death was the result of repeated, deliberate attacks with a hard object.
As the court deliberated, they found that the assault was premeditated and driven by malicious intentions. The panel, while announcing their verdict on a chilly Thursday, described the crime as premeditated and meticulously planned. The court's decision is still subject to final approval.
