The trial of 66-year-old pensioner Penelope Jackson, who is accused of murdering her husband in the English city of Somerset on February 13 this year, recently began.
She is said to have explained to the jury that her now deceased husband, David Jackson, was extremely aggressive and violent. It writes Security.
– It always starts with him being verbally aggressive, it’s about me being unfaithful to him. Then it would always escalate, sometimes he would strangle me and other times he would kick me, Jackson explained to the court.
BBC writes that women have explained how men’s behavior can vary from day to day.
“I don’t know if I was woken up by a good David or a bad David,” he said.

At the end of the interrogation by prosecutors, a video is shown in which Jackson is arrested.
Here, the 66-year-old admitted his actions.
– I confessed everything, he said on tape, before he added that the man was lying on the kitchen floor.
– Nothing bad, if you are lucky you will be late, he continued to the police officer.
Denying criminal wrongdoing
Although Jackson admitted to stabbing the man, he denies any guilt of premeditated murder.
In court, the 66-year-old man is said to have made it clear that the murder was happened after the fight.
– I didn’t mean to kill him, but I lost control. My mind wins, he told the jury.
