She grabbed a knife, hit her, and the man died: when women kill their spouses. A webcam model was arrested in Moscow for stabbing to death her former lover, who suffered from gambling addiction. Women are less likely than men to commit such crimes, former RUBOP activist Mikhail Ignatov said. According to him, attacks in most cases occur spontaneously - in a fit of anger, out of jealousy or in an attempt to defend oneself. Among other motives he listed hatred and personal interest: for example, the desire to take property and not share it with a spouse. Ignatov called premeditated murders by women relatively rare.
