Ian Stewart

Murder *

Sentence

whole-life order

Ian Stewart murdered his first wife Diane Stewart, aged 47, in 2010 at their family home in Bassingbourn, Cambridgeshire. He staged her death to appear as an epileptic fit, claiming he found her collapsed in the garden after returning from the supermarket. Evidence from her donated brain revealed lack of oxygen over 35 minutes to an hour, likely caused by smothering or restriction of breathing. No full toxicology or neck dissection was performed at the initial post-mortem, which recorded her death as Sudden Unexplained Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP). This conviction followed his 2017 guilty verdict for murdering his fiancée Helen Bailey in 2016, during which her body was dumped in a cesspit at their £1.5 million home in Royston, Hertfordshire.

Sentenced by Mr Justice Simon Bryan for the murder of his first wife Diane Stewart in 2010. The judge noted the deaths were in chillingly similar circumstances and that the major motive was financial gain. Stewart received £96,607.37 after his wife's death.
