Thomas Nutt, 46, strangled Dawn Walker, 52, at their home in Lightcliffe, near Halifax, West Yorkshire, just hours after their wedding on October 27 last year. He then left her body in a cupboard and took a caravan to Skegness where he spent several nights in a lodge. After he returned, he broke her bones so he could put her body in a suitcase and threw it over a fence in undergrowth near their home in Shirley Grove. Nutt took Mrs Walker’s daughter on a bogus investigation in what the prosecution described as a “grisly charade” and put up Halloween decorations in his house before handing himself in to police. He later admitted killing Ms Walker but claimed it was unintentional as he tried to restrain her during an argument after she threatened to divorce him. Nutt was violent towards Dawn Walker before the night he killed her. Credit: Facebook Nat pleaded guilty to manslaughter but denied murder. But he was found guilty of murder after a trial at Bradford Crown Court. Imposing a life sentence with a minimum sentence of 21 years, Judge Jonathan Rose said the evidence showed the killing took place on the night of the wedding. He told Nutt: “You then desecrated her body, hiding it in a cupboard while you enjoyed a short holiday before putting her body in a suitcase, deceiving her family and friends when she disappeared. I find you remorseless.” He added: “Dawn Walker died because you are a bully, used to getting on with women, used to controlling and manipulating women and using your significant advantage to inflict violence on women if you felt it necessary. “ In a victim impact statement, Mrs Walker’s daughter Kiera-Lee Guest told the court Nutt put up Halloween decorations in the house even after Mrs Walker was dead. Mrs Guest said Nutt knew what she had done when she went from place to place with a picture of her mother, asking if people had seen her. He said: “Justice will be served for my beautiful mother.” Ms Walker’s sister Lisa said Nutt manipulated his victim and isolated her from his family for three years “before his wicked hands took her away from us forever”. Lisa Walker told the court: “I grieve for my sister who suffered so much and felt she had no one to turn to because this man made her feel worthless.” Nutt, who sat with his arms folded and picked out his shoes during the sentencing hearing, sarcastically applauded the judge as he was led from court. There were cheers from the audience gallery as he was sentenced.
