A man has been sentenced 27-years direct imprisonment for the murder of his wife. Andrew Fleming handed himself over to police shortly after the crime in April 2023.
A plea and sentencing agreement revealed that Andrew and
Karin Fleming had an argument related to his claims that her family was
interfering in their marriage.
The 43-year-old admitted to jumping on the deceased while
she was lying on their bed and then grabbing a knife and stabbing her when they
fell off.
The court heard the accused was diagnosed with depression
22 years ago, for which he received medical attention.
He was subsequently diagnosed with bipolar mood disorder
and continues to receive medical treatment.
However, George Regional Court handed him 27-years direct
imprisonment.
