A horrendous case
A man has been sentenced to a minimum of 18 years in prison after throwing a bucket of petrol over his wife and setting her alight.
, in October 2021. Sentencing Rainey at Belfast Crown Court on Wednesday, Mr Justice O’Hara said: “This is a significant prison sentence for a man of 61 but, given the horror of what he did to his wife, it is the least he deserves.” PSNI Detective Inspector Hazel Morrow, remarked outside court that Mrs Rainet died a "horrific death". She added: "Mrs Rainey was in the car, with her seatbelt on, about to leave for work that morning. Thomas Rainey opened the passenger door; he threw flammable liquid over his wife; and set her alight."“On arrival at the scene, officers, along with other emergency services, found Katrina outside the burnt vehicle, having sustained severe and extensive burns to her body.
She added that the mother-of-six was a "caring and lover mother" and that her children and family have suffered 'unimaginable grief and anguish'. She continued: "They are still trying to come to terms with losing their loved one in such horrific circumstances.“Today, thanks to our dedicated investigation team and working in partnership with our colleagues in the Public Prosecution Service, the defendant has been held accountable for his actions.
“While today’s sentencing signifies the end of the judicial process, I know that Katrina’s family will be walking away with the heaviest of hearts. My thoughts remain firmly with them.
