KANSAS CITY, Mo. - A Kansas City man pleaded guilty Friday in Jackson County Circuit Court to second-degree murder in the death of his wife.

Stanley Reimer, 52, admitted to throwing his wife, Criste, off the balcony of their 4th floor Plaza Point apartment in August 2007.

Court documents state Reimer, the former Nelson Atkins Art Museum accountant, told police he was experiencing extreme financial difficulties and could not care for his wife any longer. Criste had numerous health issues involving her brain and her legs. A caregiver told police Criste could barely walk.

Reimer told police he walked with his wife to the balcony of their apartment, kissed her, picked her up and threw her from the balcony.

Reimer was sentenced to life in prison.

You know, I've seen lots of stories of people giving up pets and claiming they could no longer afford them, but I didn't think I'd see it with spouses for at least another couple of months.

Was this another case of quality vs quantity?

pizza was cold, beer was warm, in some states throwing her off the balcony is legal.

She'd be a little messier in the parking lot, but I bet she wouldn't complain about having a headache.
