Controlled to Death | London News

A husband convicted of brutally raping and murdering his estranged wife staged her death as a suicide, leaving behind fake messages and empty pill bottles — but evidence revealed no alcohol and only trace substances. He’d monitored her for years, recorded hundreds of hours of her life, and chose not to testify. The jury, after four days, unanimously found him guilty of rape, murder, and perverting justice. A chilling twist? His former partner’s suspicious death in 2000 — ruled an accident — was excluded from trial, though prosecutors argued it was a weaponized threat. Now, that case’s investigation has closed with no new leads, while Thompson awaits sentencing for a crime defined by control, deception, and horror.
