Metson had made Google searches including ‘How to get rid of a dead body?’, ‘What benefits can I get if my wife dies?’ and ‘Does God forgive murder?’ In the days following the murder of his wife, Metson used her Facebook account to message her friends and trick them into thinking she was still alive. — AP
LONDON: A husband who cut his wife’s body into more than 200 pieces and then paid a friend £50 (RM300) to help him dump her remains in a river in the east of England has been jailed for life with a minimum term of 19 years.
Nicholas Metson, 28, stabbed Holly Bramley, 26, at least four times in March 2023 before dismembering her and storing her body parts for a week in the kitchen larder at the flat they shared in Shuttleworth House, Stamp End, Lincoln.
