Wife walks free after feeding husband faeces-laced meal

A MOTHER of three who fed her husband a curry laced with dog excrement walked free from court yesterday.

Jill Martin fed the meal to her husband, Donald, at their home after their relationship broke down. Martin, 47, earlier pleaded guilty at Paisley Sheriff Court to culpable and reckless conduct towards her husband.

Sheriff Susan Sinclair yesterday admonished and dismissed Martin after hearing she had been of good behaviour for six months.

Martin pleaded guilty to concealing faeces in food, which was eaten by Donald Martin at their home in Lanrig Road, Newton Mearns, on 13 March, 2007.

The court earlier heard Martin laughed when her husband started eating and confessed she had put dog excrement in the dish. They are now divorcing.
