Amidu Koroma
Amidu Koroma, a delivery driver from Brixton, planned and executed the murder of his wife, set fire to their home and then tried to blame their teenage son.
The 48-year-old stabbed community nurse Mariam Kamara four times in the face, neck and chest with a kitchen knife as she slept in her bed.
He then used petrol to start a fire to hide what he had done before blaming his 19-year-old son Ishmael, wrongly accusing him of being mentally disturbed and re-enacting a scene from the Netflix thriller You.
But jurors heard the couple’s relationship was “toxic” and Ms Kamara had repeatedly expressed fears to friends that he was going to kill her.
Jurors were also told that the defendant, who had a child with another woman, had feared she would leave him for a man she had struck up an intimate friendship with in Sierra Leone.
Koroma, of Railton Road, was found guilty of Ms Kamara’s murder and arson following a trial at the Old Bailey.
Judge Rebecca Poulet KC jailed him for life with a minimum term of 29 years with a concurrent sentence of seven years for arson.

Terry Agombar
Terry Agombar, from Dartford, arranged to buy and sell 10 kilograms of cocaine using a secret messaging service.
Messages from a person using the pen name, ‘serialcod’, which were about a large-scale purchase of cocaine in the county, were passed to Kent Police.
He thought his messages were encrypted but they were recovered by international law enforcement agencies.
Agombar, aged 32, of William Mundy Way, was arrested and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to supply cocaine and was jailed for seven years.
Detective Constable Aaron Chapman, of the Kent and Essex Serious Crime Directorate, said: “When Agombar was buying and selling large quantities of cocaine, a kilogram was being exchanged for between £36,000 – £40,000.”
