French prosecutors on Sunday said they had charged a US national with the murder of his French wife, who was found stabbed to death near their holiday home in the southwest. Officers arrested Billy Kruger on Friday as he was about to fly out of France from the airport in nearby Toulouse. Hours earlier, police had found his 52-year-old wife’s remains in a rainwater drain near the couple’s holiday home in the village of Peyriac-de-Mer. Prosecutor Marie-Agnes Jolie told AFP on Sunday that Kruger had earlier confessed to police to having stabbed his wife twice, and told the investigating magistrate that it was in self-defence.
