According to the mother of three, she had had enough of the verbal and emotional abuse and was ready to risk it all and take both of their lives.
“I wanted to kill that guy and kill myself. I told my mother and called his brother and told him if you people want to force us especially me into this suicide you call marriage then I will poison your brother to die and poison myself too,” she told Joselyn.
“I’ll not go to jail for killing him and I won’t also kill myself for him to live to claim ownership of my properties. That is why frustrated I was. If I had not taken that bold decision of walking out of the marriage, I would have been dead,” she added.
