It was the day when the pure fury felt by Vicky Pryce over her husband’s infidelity was laid bare to the world.
A jury heard how she hatched a plot to ‘destroy’ Chris Huhne after discovering he had left her for another woman.
Pryce, 60, decided to ‘bring Chris down’ and ‘nail him’ as an act of vengeance after the Lib Dem Cabinet Minister walked out on her after 26 years of marriage for Carina Trimingham, the court was told.
Driven by a thirst for ‘revenge’, she decided to leak the sensational story that he forced her to take his speeding points to escape a driving ban.
In one email she wrote: ‘I really want to nail him. More than ever actually, and I would love to do it soon.’
Southwark Crown Court heard how Pryce hatched a plot with a journalist from the Sunday Times to ‘set up’ Huhne in a series of taped phone calls which were yesterday played to the jury.
But the wary politician had refused to admit the offence in a series of heated exchanges which only served to illustrate the bitterness of the couple’s split.
In one call, Huhne accuses his former wife of telling the papers that he has split up with the woman he left her for, his bisexual former press adviser Miss Trimingham.
