Sydney wife-murderer Christopher Cullen to be sentenced
Comrie Cullen was murdered by her husband.
A Sydney man who stabbed his estranged wife to death with fishing knives is due to be sentenced in a Sydney court.
Christopher Cullen, 51, was found guilty last month of murdering Victoria Comrie Cullen, with a jury rejecting his claim to have acted in self-defence.
Ms Cullen was found dead in January 2014 at Taren Point fishing club in southern Sydney.
The 39-year-old was found with a broken nose, bruised eyes and 18 sharp force injuries, including two that cut down to the bones in her neck.
Cullen's trial heard the pair had split months earlier and that the former carpenter believed his wife was having an affair.
He told a police officer she had "taunted him with her sex life".
Justice Ian Harrison is due to deliver Cullen's sentence at the NSW Supreme Court on Thursday.
