A British court sentenced a father to life in prison after killing his infant and stabbing his wife with a knife.

According to the court decision, the convicted murderer will spend at least 23 years in prison.

In the details of the crime, Dennis Bitola, 27, stabbed his wife six times, and stabbed his two-year-old son André.

The information indicated that the mother was able to call the ambulance despite suffering serious injuries, and that André died in hospital four days later.

According to the British police, the relationship got worse after the birth of André, as the father was jealous that he considered the infant to be a competitor to him.
