A nurse who stabber her husband to death as he lay in bed made a "chilling" 999 call in which she admitted: "I can't believe I've just done this." Rebecca Searing, 52, of Ryecroft, Harlow, was jailed on Wednesday (September 7) at Chelmsford Crown Court for a minimum of 17 years for murder.
She stabbed 57 year-old Paul Searing while he lay in bed at their Essex home shortly before 2.15am on 12 February. After attacking him, Rebecca called the ambulance service, admitted what she had done, and requested help from paramedics.
EssexLive has shared the recording of part of that 999 call, which has been released by Essex Police. It was played during Searing's trial and was described as "chilling" by Mr Searing's family.
