A Sydney grandfather who fatally stabbed his wife in a frenzied and sudden attack after suffering months of insomnia has been jailed for at least two years and six months.
Mu Rong Hong, 64, pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of his wife of 30 years, Mu Xia Hong, 57, at a relative's house at Berala on November 11, 2019.
He was originally charged with murder, but his plea was accepted on the basis of substantial impairment due to mental illness.
In the NSW Supreme Court on Thursday, Justice Peter Hamill jailed him for six years with a non-parole period of two years and six months.
