Gutless Husband or Common sense ? You decide!
Husband 'left wife's body hanging for eight weeks after backing out of suicide pact'
A husband has been arrested in connection with the death of his wife whose body is believed to have been left hanging in their house for the past eight weeks.
Detectives are quizzing the man in his 50s after he called officers to tell them she was dead.
It is understood he told police the couple entered into a suicide pact in September but he backed out after she hanged herself from a door frame in an upstairs bedroom.
Her body is believed to have remained in the
three-bedroom house in Lymington, Hampshire, until the husband telephoned police yesterday.
A source said: "It seems he told police they had decided on a suicide pact but he could not go through with it.
"It's an unusual and shocking business and it is almost beyond belief to think he may have had to pass her body on a daily basis."
I can agree suicide is not the easy way out but it sure is the cowards way out. Killing yourself is extremely selfish, your family and loved ones are left to pick up the pieces after you have shattered their lives to end your own suffering.

I'm wondering if the pact isn't just a cover up for murder. Kinda hard to prove otherwise
I may be blonde but I am wise

This is such a serious comment coming from a clown! We must find humor in even the most serious of events to enable us to be able to even talk about it.
There are those of us that use humor to avoid getting sucked into the "dark" or "gray" holes of tragic events. This story is a tragedy.
It sounds like misery loves company and I'm not going to the dark side.

Guy's I know you can make comments about stuff like this but humour has it's place. I know others and my self what it is like to be in dark places and common sence can go out the window. Generilsations are not fair on people going through tuff times. It may have been a clever ploy, yes, and equaly it may have been cowardice but to say that suiside itself is an easy way out is so far from the truth it beggers belief. All I am saying is, if you are going to make a comment, make sure you can say it with some compassion or at least try and understand other peoples position. It's not all black and white in this world. There are varying shades of grey and we should be mindfull of other peoples needs, not their weekness.
How cud u see your beloved wife suffering and dying in front of you....not acceptable!!!
Nice one Senor Brit. Nice one :)
I tried to make a pact with Mrs Expat, but she insisted on me going first
I bet he was scared they would blame it on him. Probably the reason they made a pact together so the other one wouldn't get into trouble.
Life is so hard sometimes.. I wonder what caused them to want such a thing in the first place.
They shud've just killed each other- would've saved the world from 2 idiots.

Y in the world would u wanna kill yourself in the first place? I mean, you got one life, and u wanna end it all... How sad could that get, seriously???
he is clever to get out from the pact he made with his wife...but he is not clever enough to stay away from the jail...what a non sense alibi!
it took 8 weeks for him to realize that he should report the incident...
or he couldnt stand the rotten smell any longer...
i think he is both gutless and no common sense at all!
may the wife's soul rest in peace! *sighs*
"never allow somebody to be ur priority when u r just his/her option"
1) Common sense not to commit suicide.
2) Gutless - if he came to that so called realisation after his wife went through with it. (Do read story again. I didn't miss it :P)
3) Dirty rotten scoundrel - if it was pre-meditated and he wasn't intending to commit suicide at all right from the start but merely wanted to be divorced from her, without long term commitment to pay alimony, misleading info to and trouble with his new girlfriend, etc. etc.

Heero hes how can he leave his wife hanging for eight weeks, was he on drugs or something? Its not really that hard to understand ;-).

again; y he left his wife hanging for 8 weeks....
I'd say gutless..

The question here is y is he waiting for 8 weeks?......remained unconsicous or high dose of drugs made him sleep.
You get Hell when you commit suicide. You can still redeem yourself by owning yourself to the police. life years span. That'll be enough to redeem before Death brushes you...

nice... blame the wife huh....
Maybe it was his wife that was driving him to suicide.
Once she was dead, he rediscovered the will to live.
i smell something fishy going on... maybe he was having an affair that's why he backed out....
I will say Stupid rather gutless......Only cowards scared to face the challenges, what life bring it to you.
I think he just couldn't go through with taking his own life. Finally, the truth dawned and he owned up to the police.
I think he was waiting to get the nerve to do it. :P
It puts a whole new meaning to "hanging out" together.

maybe he still wants to carry out the suicide pact but don’t have the nerve to do it yet..until the aroma of his wife put him back to his sanity and realize that he doesn’t like to be with her anymore…

gutless for sure.. for deciding on the pact in the very first case.. why on earth does some1 have to think about suicide.. live it the way it is.. good or bad..
LOL, not sure about this one. He may be neither. It may have been a clever plot to get her to off herself so he wouldnt have to do it. Genius.
8 weeks hanging.... holy cow, if he waited any longer she would have started to liquify.

not much of a choice! I think loneliness and love kept her around. It was the smell that got to him! he finally came to his senses
I am always excited to go to sleep! In anticipation of the new experience I will find awaiting me.
