Abused wife posted joke about hanging husband months before killing her own
BUBBLE and squeak killer Penelope Jackson posted a photo joking about hanging a husband just months before murdering hers.
Jackson, 66, jailed for life on Friday, put the pic on Facebook in lockdown.
It showed a woman knitting a noose with the quip: “Quarantined with hubbie for two weeks.
"Gertrude is knitting him something special!”
In February, she stabbed David, 78, to death with a kitchen knife following a row over serving bubble and squeak with her birthday meal.
A pal in Berrow, Somerset, said: “Me and my partner would joke she’d kill him one day. We never dreamed it would go that far. The noose pic is chilling when you look back. That’s what she was like — controlling.
“He was the long- suffering husband and I felt sorry for him.
“They had a marriage from hell.”
Ex-MoD accountant Jackson got life with a minimum term of 18 years at Bristol crown court.
