I guess he
finally lost his patience!
A
93-year-old Kansas City man has been charged with stabbing his 95-year-old wife
to death, allegedly telling a nurse afterwards: 'I couldn't take it
anymore'.
Harry Irwin
is accused of stabbing Grace Irwin, his partner of 70 years and mother of his
seven children, on Wednesday, before trying to kill himself, according to the Kansas City Star.
Irwin, his
wife's primary carer after since she suffered debilitating cancer, slit his own
wrists and plunged a knife into his chest after the alleged stabbing.
Court
records seen by the newspaper, claim Irwin admitted killing his wife to a
paramedic at the scene before adding; 'And then killed myself. Why am I
still awake?'
The paper
reports he is also alleged to have told a shift nurse he 'couldn't take it
anymore' and saying he killed his wife because she was 'arguing and screaming
at him all night'.
