What Could Justify Killing? / Monika Zumsteg / Michael Telling - Part 2

PLEASE LISTEN TO ‘SEASON 4 - EPISODE 45’ FOR PART ONE OF THIS TWO-PART CASE. Michael Telling had killed his wife, Monika. He hid her body in a summer house for five months before cutting off her head and disposing of the remains. He never disputed those facts. But after his arrest, Telling argued that he was not responsible for his actions as he suffered from an abnormality of mind (Part 2 of 2). *** LISTENER CAUTION IS ADVISED ***This episode was researched and written by Benjamin Fitton. Narration, audio editing and production direction also by Benjamin Fitton.
