And the moral of the story is ... don't binge and bridge.

The accused's explanation of the "more than 100 injuries" to his wife was that he accidentally inflicted the first one during some sort of argument or struggle while he was drunk, then, when he discovered his wife was dead, began drinking again and became despondent and stabbed her several more times "for all the trouble she had caused."

To my amazement -- for I thought even OJ's alibi was better than Myrtle's -- I think this explanation tops Mrs Bennett's story that the gun went off accidentally four times while she was holding it.
