A heartbroken husband who was left traumatised after his wife was decapitated by a swinging metal gate in front of his eyes is demanding $140 million (£113m) in damages for her death. Ludovic Michaud had been enjoying a camping trip away with Esther Nakajjigo, when she was gruesomely beheaded by a gate in a national park that sliced through the side of their car due to strong winds.
The horrified husband had felt ''something wet'' on his body and turned round to discover his spouse's blood was splattered all over him, the Daily Star reports. The unthinkable tragedy occurred on June 13, 2020, while the couple were exploring Arches National Park in Utah. while they celebrated their one-year anniversary.
Esther, who was an extraordinary activist, had been wearing a T-shirt at the time of her death that read: "Everything hurts and I'm dying" as she playfully mocked her husband's idea to go camping. The well-respected woman was born into severe poverty in Uganda before winning an award from the United Nations at the young age of 17 for working to improve the lives of local girls.
