KEY POINTS:
A wife has admitted feeding her estranged husband a curry containing dog excrement after their relationship broke down, the BBC has reported.
Jill Martin, 47, pleaded guilty to culpable and reckless conduct against husband Donald Martin.
A Scottish court heard that Mrs Martin, after placing the dinner in front of her husband Donald and watching him start to eat it, she had burst out laughing.
Martin's defence solicitor Terry Gallanagh likened the case to "an episode of Desperate Housewives".
At that time, she believed he had started an affair although those fears turned out to be unfounded.
Following her arrest for the incident, Martin was banned from going anywhere near her husband, the BBC reported.
The couple have now begun divorce proceedings.
