What excuse can a man use for killing his wife?

uk.yahoo.com/news/bubbly-university-student-strangled-death-tinnitus-suffering-estranged-husband-killed-145034454.html

This article makes it sound like a medical condition drove this man mad and he then killed his wife and tried to kill her son.

How is this possible to report this now like this!

Pretty much any excuse he dreams up sadly, or so it seems to me Sad

The same ones a woman can use for killing her husband.

She was a nag.

I found her in bed with someone else.

She had the fucking cheek to ask me for more money

She breathed

She put on weight

My, MY dinner was not ready when I got home

She got to be the superstar when giving birth

Bitch

It breaks my heart that in nigh on every article the man is straight out excused, such as in this case, or the woman blamed (she was cheating, he suspected her cheating, she was going to leave him) and again, his behaviour excused. It's horrendous.

Jesus my sister has had tinnitus for years. I'd better hide the carving knife at Christmas then.

Fgs, you don't attempt family annihilation because you've got tinnitus. This man did it because he was a violent controlling misogynist. I would bet he would have done it anyway without the tinnitus.
