Sydney husband guilty of wife's murder

Christopher Cullen has been found guilty of murdering his estranged wife whom he stabbed multiple times with fishing knives because he believed she was having an affair.

The 51-year-old former carpenter made no reaction as the verdict was handed down in the Supreme Court on Tuesday after just over a day of deliberations.

Supporters of his wife cried and gasped, with one mouthing "thank you".

The verdict is a rejection of Cullen's claims he acted in self defence and was provoked when he attacked Victoria Comrie Cullen on January 22, 2014 in Sydney's south.
