Mother describes her murdered daughter as a 'brilliant mum'
A husband from Worcestershire has been sentenced for at least 17 years behind bars after being found guilty of killing his wife and then trying to make it look like a tragic accident.
The court heard how Alan Evans threw his wife Louise down a staircase and smothered her after she found out about his affair. A judge described the murder as 'a callous and deliberate killing'.
Louise's mother, Judy Bollen, described outside court how it is "heartbreaking" taking her grandchildren to visit their mothers grave.
