A jilted husband stabbed his wife to death in a busy street after discovering she had become close to another man, a court hears.
Medland launched a frenzied attack on his estranged wife Samantha
A man who stabbed his wife to death in a crowded street after arming himself with knives given to them as a wedding present has been found guilty of murder.
Ty Medland, 26, used one of four knives he concealed on himself to launch a "frenzied attack" on 24-year-old Samantha Medland in central Brighton, East Sussex.
Before the attack, Medland uploaded a series of graphic pictures and videos of the couple having sex to his Facebook page.
A message he wrote accompanying the link referred to Mrs Medland as "the cheating, lying, unloyal whore who destroyed everything I loved and believe in".
A two-week trial at Lewes Crown Court heard she had become close to another man and had rebuffed her husband's repeated attempts to patch up their marriage.
Medland, described as a "petulant, self-centred man" incapable of dealing with rejection, knifed her to death as she collected belongings from him near her workplace in Queen Square, Brighton, on February 17.
Paramedics tried in vain to revive his wife, who suffered multiple stab wounds to her scalp, forehead, cheeks, neck, abdomen and back.
Medland, of Peacehaven, had pleaded guilty to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility, but was convicted of murder after six hours of deliberation by the jury.
He showed no emotion as the verdict was announced.
Adjourning sentencing until Monday, Judge Anthony Scott-Gall told the jury: "You have convicted the defendant on the most compelling and overwhelming evidence.
"It was really the most ghastly killing. I'm sure you will never forget it."
He said Medland faces life imprisonment with a minimum term of at least 25 years.
Medland had met his wife in central Brighton earlier in the day to hand over her belongings but forgot some items, including a computer hard drive with pictures and personal documents.
As he travelled on the bus to meet her for a second time, he texted some friends.
In one message, he wrote: "The only thing I want right now is murder/suicide."
The court heard that Medland was aware of her growing bond with another man because he had accessed her Facebook account.
In a statement, Mrs Medland's mother, Amelia Shah, said: "No-one should outlive their children. The actions of Ty Medland have caused devastation and heartbreak to my family."
