Mum Dawn was stabbed

A WICKED dad previously cleared of killing his wife has been found guilty of her murder after their child revealed the truth in therapy sessions.

Robert Rhodes, 52, stabbed his wife Dawn in the neck but was acquitted of murder after claiming she tried to attack him during a row on June 2, 2016, when she flipped "like the Incredible Hulk".

The retrial came after the child told a therapist Rhodes had actually coerced them into helping with a plan to kill her and injure himself to make it look like self-defence.
