A woman who murdered her husband in a “ferocious attack” and hid his dismembered body in their garden has been jailed for life with a minimum term of 22 years.
Maureen Rickards, 50, stabbed Jeremy Rickards, 65, to death, then spent money on his bank card and concocted lies to try to divert suspicion away from herself.
Rickards got rid of evidence and the murder weapon has not been found, Canterbury Crown Court heard.
