Greek man confesses to killing his wife

Right from the very start I knew it was him! That poor woman, having the life choked out of her for daring to leave her husband. A baby who will never know her mummy

Just heartbreaking

I am sick to death of men and their violence.

I thought it was him too, then felt sorry for thinking so when the police seemed to believe his story. God I’m naive. Poor Caroline, and her poor, poor family. So heartbreaking.

I think the police, the media who spoke to him and reported on it as well as anyone who paid any passing interest in the story suspected him.

Partly because, sadly, the partner is often the culprit and partly because he appeared to be suspicious af.

RIP to that beautiful lady and sympathy to her family.

Oh - I also thought he was responsible (like the American who murdered his pregnant wife and 2 little girls and went on tv crying for them to ‘come home’).

I guess women know the score - you are more likely to be murdered by a ex/partner than ‘a bad man’.

I remember hearing a radio programme about how the police investigate people they suspect of being responsible rather than victims (they highlighted that loathe some pair who set fire to their home and murdered several of their children and went crying in national TV for witnesses). It seems as if the police often have suspicions but just give them enough rope.

Oh God I can't believe this. I also thought it was him. His reaction was SO off. Vile man.

Same OP.

It was sadly obvious. "Shit, another one of us."

Yes, me too. It was obviously him. Respect to the Greek police.

I also felt he was guilty, and I thought the police thought so too. Just awful.

I had a weird feeling it was him also! I was hoping I was wrong.

@Longdistance

I suspected him from the start. She was only 20 and they’d been together since she was 17. He’s 33 Hmm

Not entirely sure how that is relevant.

Oh, and commenters, generally, who said "no man would kill his own dog" fucking weeping bollocks.

Priorities, gentlemen. Priorities.

Some murder stories just don't ring true and I thought this was one right from the start.

Yes, it did seem obvious but the police were obviously playing the long game

All us fucking women knew it from the start. Another woman snuffed out by a vile specimen of man. Will this ever end?

Knew it too. So sad. The whole story didn't stack up.

@Myusernameisnotmyusernameno I think it's relevant, a 20 year old is easier to control and manipulate then maybe someone his own age.

Yeah it was obvious from the beginning. Awful man. The police must have been just waiting for him to mess up the whole time, it must have been so frustrating. RIP Caroline

I also had a feeling about him from the word go. He had cold eyes.

Demonstrating yet again that women are (in the main) most in danger from the men in their lives than anyone else.

Yep I said it straight away. Does he have another wife or something by any chance.
