“How could this happen?” is the question Kylee Guy is asking after she learned of the acquittal of Ewen Macdonald, the suspect to her husband’s murder.

She told Weekend Herald that the incident that happened two years ago changed their whole world completely.

“You are only given one life to live. Scotty was everything you could ever dream of – a loving, amazing husband, the best daddy to his boys and a wonderful, caring friend,” she said.

Mrs Guy also said her love for her husband never changed and that she finds the world she now lives in as “unfair and unbelievable”.

After the not guilty verdict was delivered on Tuesday, Scott’s father, Bryan Guy, read a statement outside the High Court at Wellington .

He said the verdict left the family with “mixed emotions” because they were left wondering who killed Scott.

Although Macdonald is already acquitted, he is still in Manawatu Prison awaiting sentencing on charges he admitted at the time of his arrest.

He admitted to have burned down an old house owned by Scott and Kylee Guy. He also admitted to vandalizing their new home with an axe and painting graffiti on the walls.

He also pleaded guilty to other charges but the nature to those were not disclosed.

A sentencing date will be set when he appears in the Palmerston North District Court on July 31.

 A 29-year-old Kaiapoi man was arrested Wednesday afternoon and charged with the murder of a woman in Burwood, Christchurch.

Inside an earthquake-damaged home was where the body of the woman was found at about 10.15am.

Because next of kin are still being notified, police said, they still can not disclose the identity of the victim.

The man is set to appear in Christchurch District Court Thursday morning.

The front-section of a Travis Rd flat in the badly quake-hit suburb of Burwood, bordering Parklands was cordoned by police.

A team of 20 police officers and environmental science and research staff are working on the investigation.

The scene examination by the police is expected to last for several days.

In an attempt to piece together how the woman died, officers went door to door asking residents if they observed any unusual activity or heard anything out of the ordinary overnight.

The neighbors all commented that the young couple who lived in the flat seemed nice. However one of them, Mrs Abrey said though she did not hear anything peculiar that night, she noticed a light on when she got up at 6.30am.

Another neighbor, Vicki Stikkelman, mentioned she also did not hear anything untoward overnight, she heard “teenage” girls laughing and giggling in the abandoned houses at about 8 am.
