Jenny Niguidula fatally stabbed her cheating lover and employee, Rhonie Apostol, with a kitchen knife in November 2019 after a fight outside Sydney Airport a week earlier.
A woman has been jailed for at least 12 years after stabbing her married lover and employee in the heart after he revealed an affair with another woman.after the pair furiously argued outside Sydney's international airport a week earlier.
Justice Hament Dhanji sentenced her to a total of 16 years on Monday, but said the sentence will do nothing for Mr Apostol's family.Niguidula had also been violent towards Mr Apostol's brother-in-law, whom she married in 2009 before divorcing in 2015.Justice Dhanji said Niguidula might question the value of imprisoning her, but domestic violence offenders need deterrence.
The knife entered between the ribs and faced little resistance beyond the skin, experts told the court. The judge was not satisfied she was significantly impaired but her mental condition contributed, along with a fluctuating but heightened emotional state after she learned of the affair.She did not intend to cause Mr Apostol anything more than grievous bodily harm when she impulsively stabbed him once in the chest in the context of a heightened emotional state, the judge said.
