28 years for jealous father who strangled children

A jealous father who strangled his two young children with computer cables to get back at his wife was jailed for a minimum of 28 years today.

Petros Williams, 37, of Manchester, deliberately chose internet connection cords to punish her when she used dating websites following their marriage breakdown.

He also cruelly filmed a “farewell video” of his four-year-old daughter Yolanda and two-year-old son Theo in which he told them to face the camera and say “we will miss you mummy”.
