A "good wife" who stabbed her partner in the spine during a drunken row has walked free from court.
Mum Kirsty Wilson stuck a knife an inch into Liam Brady's spinal column during an argument while their young child was in the house. A judge told her she was lucky she didn't paralyse or kill him.
But after hearing she had no previous convictions, had undertaken work to address her behaviour and had got back together with her victim, a judge at Newcastle Crown Court said he would let her home to be with her family.
