Woman jailed for life for murdering sister and stealing her Rolex watch

A woman who slit the throat of her film director sister before stealing her diamond-encrusted gold Rolex watch has been jailed for life for her murder.

Nancy Pexton, 70, slashed and stabbed Jennifer Abbott 10 times and taped up her mouth with gaffer tape in an “intentional act of degradation” on 10 June last year.

Pexton, of no fixed address, was found guilty of murder on Friday at the Old Bailey and was jailed for life with a minimum term of 22 years.
