A father-of-five has been found guilty of murder after locking his wife in a room and setting fire to their home.
Alan Stead, of Meynell Fields, Loggerheads, in Staffordshire, denied killing his wife, Anita, in May 2002.
She died in a room he built in the garage of their home used to hide a computer game counterfeiting operation, Stafford Crown Court heard.
Stead, arrested after police agreed to reopen the case, was jailed for life with a minimum term of 25 years.
Prosecutors alleged Stead wanted to kill his wife because she had told him she wanted a divorce...
