A nurse who was found guilty murdering her disabled husband by injecting him with insulin could have her conviction quashed with her lawyers set to argue he died of sepsis.
Deborah Winzar, 54, was jailed for life at Birmingham Crown Court in 2000 after being found guilty of the murder of her husband Dominic McCarthy.
Mr McCarthy, who was paralysed in a motorcycle accident in 1984, was found collapsed in his bed at the home the couple shared in Stonely, Cambridgeshire, in January 1997.

Winzar, then a senior ward sister at Kettering General Hospital, denied any wrongdoing and maintained that her husband must have died of natural causes.
But a post-mortem examination revealed that Mr McCarthy had a very high level of insulin in his blood and the prosecution’s case was that his wife had the opportunity and skill to inject it.
Winzar, pictured, was released from prison after 15 years and remains committed to clearing her name. Her lawyers claim new medical evidence indicates Mr McCarthy may have died of sepsis.

Her case has been referred to the Court of Appeal by the Criminal Cases Review Commission, which investigates possible miscarriages of justice. Senior judges adjourned her case yesterday for medical evidence to be obtained.
Presiding judge, Lord Justice Irwin, said the case has an ‘extraordinary history. We cannot go on middling this case, there has to be a decisive conclusion’. Justice William Davis said that the case will examine whether a ‘natural succession of events’ led to dangerously low blood sugar levels ‘and therefore death’ was responsible.
However, James Curtis, prosecuting, said Mr McCarthy’s death ‘was not caused by some internal sudden lightning strike with the body turning in on itself’.
A previous challenge to Winzar’s conviction was dismissed by the Court of Appeal in December 2002. The CCRC previously said the new evidence ‘gives rise to a real possibility’ her conviction will be quashed.
A new hearing date has not been set.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
