Knife attack wife avoids jail sentence

- BY CONNOR GORDON

ONE of Scotland's oldest knife attackers, who stabbed her husband of 50 years as he lay in bed, has avoided jail.

Annie Hillen, 84, also tried to smother James Hillen, 81, with a pillow at their flat in Glasgow's Thornwood on August 4, 2022.

James was struck on the shoulder but managed to disarm his wife before she came at him again with another blade.

Hillen later told police she was “disappointed” she had not killed him.

The pensioner had been due to stand trial accused of attempted murder.

But instead Hillen pleaded guilty to the reduced charge of assaulting her husband to his injury and danger of life.

Judge Tom Hughes said at the High Court in Paisley: “I make it abundantly clear to you that you face an extremely serious charge.

“It is a charge which involved an attack on your husband.
