A WIFE wept in the dock yesterday as she was accused of killing her husband by pulling the handbrake of their car during a drunken row.
Caroline Meeking, 45, allegedly locked the rear wheels of the vehicle at 60mph when being driven home from a pub after husband Alan, 49, called her a “slut” and said he was leaving her.
The car skidded 21 metres and smashed side-on into a Rover being driven at 50mph on the other side of the road.
Mr Meeking was killed instantly by the impact of the crash, which was so severe the rear wheel of the couple’s car was almost touching the front seat.
The jury heard passing motorists found Meeking weeping over her husband’s body, screaming: “I am sorry, I am sorry, it is all my fault.
“That is my husband, it is all my fault, we were having an argument.
“He said he don’t want me any more and I just pulled the hand brake. He called me a dirty slut, he was going to leave me.”
