Sentencing Delayed for Spalding Woman’s Killer Due to Psychiatric Assessment

The postponement of the sentencing for Brian Simpson, the murderer of Spalding mother Kristine Sparane in 2024, has been announced, with the new date set for 2026. Sixty-four-year-old Simpson was relocated to a secure hospital for a psychiatric evaluation after being declared unfit to stand trial. Sparane, 37, was found by police at her residence on Winsover Road, Spalding. It was revealed during a hearing at the Lincoln Crown Court that two psychiatrists need to evaluate Simpson before a judge can establish whether he should be confined indefinitely in a secure mental health facility.
