Husband Is Jailed for Life for Pushing His Seven- Month Pregnant Wife to Her Death From a Cliff After Posing for a Selfie With Her on 1,000Ft-High Ledge
Does marriage and/or parenthood make a person more godly, loving, responsible and ethical than staying single and/or childless? No, no it does not, contrary to all the hyper-pro-marriage-nuclear family talking points that many conservatives pump out – another example below.

A man will spend the rest of his life behind bars after he pushed his pregnant wife off a cliff so he could collect a life insurance policy.
…He had lured his wife – who was afraid of heights – to the edge of the 304-meter cliff on the pretense of taking a selfie, but then pushed her over.
A court heard how he committed the horrific act, which took place in June 2018, amid a twisted plot where he took out life insurance on her behalf worth $25,000, which he quickly claimed after her death.

A husband who pushed his heavily pregnant wife to her death from a cliff [located in the nation of Turkey] so he could collect a life insurance policy has been jailed for life.
Hakan Aysal, 40, was told Tuesday that he must serve at least 30 years before he can be considered for release by judges at Fethiye High Criminal Court, southern Turkey.
The court had previously heard that Aysal pushed wife Semra, 32, off a 1,000ft cliff in Butterfly Valley, a beauty spot around 10 miles south of Fethiye, in June 2018.
Aysal had lured his wife – who was afraid of heights – to the edge of the cliff on the pretense of taking a selfie before shoving her over. He then tried to pocket a £40,000 insur
ance payout from a policy he took out a short time before she died.
Police were alerted to the suspicious death when Aysal tried to claim on the policy just days after Semra perished.
Aysal, who initially denied the killing, tried to appeal on the basis of insanity after he was found guilty several weeks ago – but medics have since ruled him sane.
He was hauled back to court on October 24 so his punishment could be confirmed.
During the trial, witnesses told how Aysal was ‘completely calm’ as he flagged down help after Serma fell to her death.
…Another witness, Recep Sahin, whose daughter captured Serma’s final moments on the clifftop before she died, also took the stand.
He told the court that he had stopped at the beauty spot ‘to see the view of Kabak Bay with my family.’
‘My daughter was filming the view with my phone and the Aysal couple came down the slope at that moment.
‘We even joked: “Either this man will throw the woman off or the woman will throw the man.”‘
The witnesses both added that the defendant appeared very calm in the moments after the incident while emergency services were on the scene.
On the day of Semra’s death, another witness captured the moment her husband appeared to be almost dragging her over to the edge of the cliff.
But nobody captured the moment Serma actually fell. Prosecutors say this is because Aysal insisted the couple stay on the clifftop for three hours until he could be sure they were not being watched.
