Wife's chilling nine-word premonition before she was beheaded by husband

A mum-of-five scarily predicted her own death just days before she was beheaded by her husband over 'cheating' allegations.

Judith Nibbs, 60, a Meals On Wheels worker from Kirkham, was attacked and murdered by Dempsey Nibbs, 69, at their home in Hoxton, east London on April 10, 2014.

The pair's relationship was souring at the time, with Dempsey growingly increasingly suspicious his wife was seeing other men.

After going through her computer, discovering videos, sexually explicit Skype messages and bank transfer slips linked with a man called Khalid from Morocco, Judith admitted: "I have had sex eight times" and a row broke out.

The crane driver would grip Judith by the throat and threaten her life on April 7, and just a day later, while she was leaving work, she told her colleagues she expected things to go from bad to worse.

"If I'm not in Friday, I might be dead," she said, chillingly.

On the evening of April 10, Dempsey would attack the mother of two of his kids, knocking her out with an iron bar before cutting her head off and disposing of it down the toilet.

He would then write a note to his 30-year-old son, Kirk, and call 999 to report two bodies at the property, with Dempsey planning to take his own life.

A police officer decided to break down the front door when he saw Judith's body through the letterbox, proceeding to grapple a shotgun and a knife from Dempsey after he attempted to stab himself in the bathroom.

The disgraced husband would admit to killing his wife, calling her a "snake", though jurors heard he had shown zero signs of mental illness.

Dempsey told the court how he didn't mean to end Judith's life and instead wanted to "slap her around a bit", and that it was only until after she was dead he decided to behead her because he felt "betrayed".

Jurors rejected his claims of self-defence and found him guilty of murder, with sentencing adjourned to a date to be fixed.
