..........A 45 year old woman, Mrs Charlotte Collinge, who lured two men back to her house with promises of sex and convinced them to murder her husband has been jailed for life.
Her husband, Clifford Collinge, 61, of Market Warsop, Nottinghamshire, died in October 2011 after suffering 46 injuries in a savage attack.
.
Mrs Collinge was jailed for 23 years at Nottingham Crown Court while her accomplices,
Steven Shreeves, 40, and Kelvin Dale, 27, both of Market Warsop, were each jailed for 18 years.
Sentencing the trio, Mr Justice Colman Treacy said: "The killing of Clifford Collinge in his own home was a truly shocking offence.
The jury heard Charlotte Collinge had met Shreeves and Dale at a local bar and taken them back to her home on the promise of sex to kill her husband.
A clamp was used to attack Mr Collinge, a former newsagent, who was found lying in a pool of blood at his home.
Ahead of the killing, Shreeves and Dale snorted cocaine in the toilets of the bar and drank a number of pints of beer, the court was told.
Giving evidence, Shreeves said he had never met Collinge before the night of the murder and she had started flirting with him as soon as he arrived at the pub.
Among his many injuries, Mr Collinge suffered a head injury, fractured ribs and a collapsed lung.
The court heard the couple, who had been together for 17 years, had had a rocky relationship peppered with break-ups and reconciliations.
