A wife who stabbed her husband of 15 years while they were in bed has told a court she has “no recollection” of the incident.

Christine Kekkonen, 36, is on trial at Bristol Crown Court for murdering Henri Kekkonen at their home in Baltonsborough, Glastonbury, on May 9 this year.

Immediately after the incident, the defendant texted his mother saying: “Please send the police here now, I’ve done something terrible.”

Ms Kekkonen, who has a history of mental illness, denies the murder and told police she often “dissociates” and cannot remember the events of that day.
