THE husband of murdered Debbie Smith has been released from hospital and is today in police custody.
Russell Yeates, 49, was taken to hospital with neck wounds after his wife was found with her throat cut at her home in Bell Lane, Wheatley, on Bank Holiday Monday.
He was arrested by police at the hospital on suspicion of murder on Tuesday but was too ill to be interviewed.
Last night Yeates was released from hospital into police custody.
A Thames Valley Police spokesman said detectives expect to spend the weekend quizzing the 49-year-old about the death of his wife.
