| A murderer whose prayers for forgiveness were overheard by police who bugged his car has been jailed for life. Judge Roberts told him he was reducing the term which might have been expected from a pre-meditated murder because it was out of character and because Maben had been under pressure. Judge Roberts said Maben was under "enormous pressure" and must have seen no other way to be with the woman he loved and their baby. He added: "It was illustrated by your prayer for forgiveness which was recorded by police." |

| In this instance, he was clearly repentant. Should have got an absolute discharge. |
