Husband snaps after finding wife's internet porn video
By William Green
A jealous engineer who tried to choke his wife to death when he found a pornographic video of her and another man on the internet has been jailed.
Korneuburg provincial court gave the 36-year-old from Lower Austria’s Bruck an der Leitha district a six and half year sentence for attempted murder yesterday (Tues) after defence lawyers admitted he had "snapped" when he found the X-rated film on the internet.
The court heard how the man, whom a court psychologist had described as unaggressive, had tried to choke her and had beaten her before putting her in his car and, after unbuckling her seatbelt, drove at 140 kilometres per hour through a field.
The 31-year-old woman fled when he finally stopped the car.
"I never wanted to kill her," the man told the court.

This is a miscarriage of justice and cries out for review by an appellate court. The charge doesn't match the offense AND mitigating circumstances aren't duly considered.If I was on the jury - he'd walk free.

What "mitigating circumstances"? First of all, she could have made the video before she began her relationship with the engineer, and if he's so set on loyalty that he expected her to not do something like that even before she knew him, he shouldn't have been looking at porn and fantasizing about other women. And even if she cheated on him, there's better ways to deal with it than attempted murder.
