"British Man Sentenced to Life for Poisoning Couple with Fentanyl and Rewriting Will"

TL;DR Summary
British IT worker Luke D’Wit was sentenced to a minimum of 37 years in prison for poisoning and monitoring the deaths of an older couple, Stephen and Carol Baxter, with fentanyl. He had manipulated the couple for years, creating a fake will to gain control of their company and using various personas to deceive them. Described as "cruel and senseless" by the judge, D’Wit showed no reaction as he received a life sentence. The couple's daughter expressed the emotional pain caused by D’Wit's actions, while the prosecutor described the case as "quite an extraordinary long-term case of manipulation."
