Man forgives wife who tried to kill him

A MAN whose wife tried to kill him by slitting his throat after plying him with a sex drug said yesterday he still loved her and wanted her freed from prison.

Joanne Hale was having an “affair” with a married man she met on the internet before giving her husband Peter a sex drug and taking him to woodland in Stoke Park, Bristol.

Mr Hale, 43, took the natural aphrodisiac called “horny goat weed” on December 27 last year, believing he and his wife would be having sex in the woods.
