[2006] EWHC 2414 (Admin)

A widow who had been convicted of the manslaughter of her retired husband was not entitled to a police widow's pension under the Police Pensions Regulations 1987 , as the common law rule of forfeiture precluded a person who had unlawfully killed another from acquiring a benefit in consequence of the killing.
