Jurors convicted a California fertility doctor on Monday of strangling his wife to death amid marital problems. Prosecutors acknowledged in an Orange County courtroom that they could not prove motive as to why Dr. Eric Scott Sills, 58, killed Susann Sills, 45, in the early morning of Nov. 13, 2016, but they painted a picture of a marriage on the rocks.

Issues included friction over the defendant having to pay alimony over a prior marriage, and the victim even posting a topless photo after losing a chat room bet that Donald Trump would become the Republican presidential nominee, according to The Orange County Register

“She is frustrated, upset, feels trapped and feels like he is killing her,” Senior Deputy District Attorney Jennifer Walker reportedly told jurors in opening statements last month. “She tells him in these texts, ‘You are killing me, don’t you see?’”
