Wife set her husband on fire while he was in bed after she discovered he had fathered a lovechild (DETAILS)

A wife with a 'fiery temper' who killed her husband by setting fire to him in bed has been found guilty of murder.
Georgina Pontes Furtado Vilela, 47, was sentenced to 23 years in prison after being convicted of murder and arson with intent to endanger life at Wolverhampton Crown Court earlier today.

During the two week trial the court heard how HIV-positive Vilela had suffered from depression and felt 'like an incomplete woman' as a result of not being able to bear Mr Vilela children.

The serious house fire she started happened while four of her step-daughters were also in the home.
It had been started in the first floor back bedroom by Georgina, from Walsall, who is believed to have deliberately poured petrol on her 45-year-old husband Carlos, as he lay on the bed.

She then left the property and watched as neighbours and emergency services battled to rescue Carlos and four of his six daughters, aged 13 to 21, who were all trapped inside.
The most seriously injured daughter, Josefina then aged 14, suffered 60 per cent burns in the blaze and had to be rescued from inside the house by the fire service.
She was resuscitated by emergency services at the scene and has only recently been discharged from hospital, with life changing injuries.
