A serial domestic abuser has been jailed for life for murdering his wife – after Alexa voice recordings helped bring him to justice.
Daniel White, 36, kicked open Angie White’s locked bedroom door and strangled her before cutting her throat with a Stanley knife. He then fled the house in Swansea in his wife’s car and hours later phoned police to confess to murder.
Officers went to their home in Idris Terrace, Plasmarl, and discovered the front door unlocked and the body of Mrs White, 45, in her bedroom. Swansea Crown Court heard that White, a labourer, had a long history of domestic violence, including against Mrs White.
