A man who brutally mutilated and murdered his wife in front of their three children — all under six — has been sentenced to life in prison.
The 36-year-old man, who cannot be named to protect the identity of the children, was sentenced on Thursday, March 29, for violently attacking his 27-year-old wife. He mutilated her body and slashed her repeatedly with a sharp knife before dumping her body in a grassland next to the tennis courts at Dallas, Melbourne.
