Edith and Percy Thompson, 32, were returning to their home in Ilford after a night at the theatre on 3 October 1922 when he was stabbed to death by 20-year-old Freddy. and the insistence of Bywaters that she played no part in her husband's death

Oh yeah, I see! It must have been a simple coincidence that Freddy knew exactly when to slip into the house with the knife, ready and waiting for their return from the theater when hubby would have his guard down, probably half-drunk from drinks afterwards at the pleading of the Mrs.

So, she had a real swingin' time in the end.

Actually, the attack took place outside the house and being a tennant of theirs, he was pretty familiar with his victims routine.
