"A jury took just under three hours to find Timothy Brehmer, 41, not guilty of murdering Claire Parry.
Brehmer had previously admitted the manslaughter of the married nurse with whom he had been having an affair for more than 10 years.
The court heard that while the pair were in the car, Parry had taken Brehmer’s phone and sent a message to his wife saying: “I am cheating on you.”
Brehmer claimed she accidentally suffered the fatal injury while he was trying to push her out of the vehicle so he could drive away."
He had the foresight to bring a knife with him, so he cut himself and pretended he had been attacked and was protecting himself.

"Under cross-examination by Richard Smith QC, prosecuting, Mr Brehmer initially denied being a "well-practised liar" but then accepted the term after admitting he lied "consistently well" to his wife over their affair."
