Here we go again. Wife killed husband with samurai sword, court told.
A woman killed her husband with a samurai sword "stabbing and slicing him" more than 50 times before replacing the sword in its sheath on a stand, a court heard.
Not a woman though, is he?
Joanna Rowland-Stuart, 71, was arrested and originally charged with murdering her husband Andrew Rowland-Stuart, 70, after he was pronounced dead at their home in Lavender Street in Brighton on 27 May 2024.
At Lewes Crown Court on Monday, the jury heard that Ms Rowland-Stuart, who has been deemed unfit to plead, told police she had acted in self defence.
Jurors heard that Ms Rowland-Stuart, who is transgender, married Mr Rowland Stuart, known as Andy, in a civil partnership in 2006.
Who is transgender, and therefore not a woman. Not a woman's crime.

Irony is not dead. Though the husband of this volunteer for Brighton and Hove LGBT Community Safety Forum certainly is. “Joanna” who advised police on domestic violence is accused of killing his husband with a samurai sword. Here he says safe spaces are important. Really. 👇 pic.twitter.com/WMNI94ImmL
