By Tess de la Mare & Lee MadanDawn Lewis, 54, stabbed Glenn Richards, 61, on the evening of 18 April at her cottage in Glastonbury.
Angry text messages shown to the jury revealed their relationship rapidly deteriorated in the five months they were living together.The court heard Mr Richards had asked Lewis to marry him, despite her being gay and in a relationship. She said he grew jealous of all of her male friends. Peter Bredell told the court on Wednesday that in a video call a few days before the killing, Ms Lewis told him: "I am going to stab him and stab myself".Neighbour George Schomburg said Lewis had made a similar claim at a dinner party a few months earlier.The jury was told the doctor who stitched up Ms Lewis's three wounds suggested they might have been self-inflicted because they were all in the same place and of decreasing severity.
I can’t blame her. Now she will be a permanent lodger in prison.
So much for the calming power of yoga. Namaste 🧘♂️
Can we have a 'stop violence against men by women day' please
Another white ribbon day heh. 😏
People are becoming heartless....pls Almighty GOD have mercy and protect us from such people
Gives a whole new meaning to 'corpse pose.'
Oh oh
Namaste / gansta
He was just getting in to yoga.
Ohmaggie2022 Yoga is obviously good for calming the mind then! 😁 I think the mention of yoga is just another way to garner attention by the press who find it impossible these days to report factually without some sort of side issue being used for sensationalism.
This is a case where it seems obvious there's much more to it than's been reported. I suspect the jury didn't give much credence to Lewis's claims, felling it was all premeditated and in cold blood. The sentence she gets will either support that or aim to mitigate it.
She finally gave him his just desserts, she should get a nighthood not a jail sentence. Free the innocent lady.
Dawn Lewis found guilty of murdering Mr Richards She had 'self inflicted' stab wounds During the trial, the court heard Mr Richards had served time in prison for stabbing his ex-wife to death in front of their two children in 2002 I'm sure attorneygeneral will look into case
Downward dog
Loool if you read the article essentially she actually killed a dude who was almost certainly a threat to her life. Headline is SO misleading.
Guy was clearly a fucking weirdo and a murderer himself! Free her
Very karmic of her
We sawr it in the papahs.
I’m not seeing the problem here.
Namaste dodgy lodger
