Overview
- Opening statements at Norwich Crown Court on January 7 outlined the case against Claire Bridger.
- Bridger denies attempted murder but has pleaded guilty to wounding with intent.
- Prosecutors say she stabbed Keith Bridger in the chest and abdomen and bit him during a confrontation at his Bramerton address on July 17.
- Neighbours intervened, a 999 call was played to the jury, and a doctor neighbour treated him before he was taken to Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital with life-threatening injuries.
- The couple were together nearly 40 years, and prosecutors said he chose euthanasia for their difficult-to-rehome rescue dogs after moving to a one-bedroom property.
