Daryl Berman, 72, is found guilty of murdering her husband, David Berman, 84, after claiming he died from a kitchen incident in which he “fell onto” a knife. The cases describe an allegation that David Berman suffered a fatal chest wound during an incident at their home in Prestwich, Greater Manchester, in March last year. Multiple outlets report that Berman maintained her innocence, including statements that her husband “fell on” or “fell onto” a “little knife” in their kitchen.
Manchester Evening News reports that jurors return a guilty verdict at a re-trial, and that Berman is expected to be sentenced next month. Other outlets similarly state that she has been convicted following the trial process and that the couple had been together for about 27 years, according to the Daily Record.
The reporting consistently focuses on the guilty verdict, the disputed account involving a fall onto a knife, and the location and timing of the fatal injury, with sentencing pending at the time of these articles.
