Update: 2/10/10 Hong Kong's highest court has overturned Nancy Kissel's conviction. The decision was made on Thursday, but Kissel, 45, is being kept in custody pending a bail application. Lawyers for the American woman, who was convicted of killing her banker husband in Hong Kong by drugging him with sedatives-lace strawberry milkshake, argued during the appeal hearing that prosecutors broke the law by using evidence during the murder trial that drew from the American's initial bail hearing after she was charged. Nancy Kissel is the former sister-in-law of Andrew Kissel, the Greenwich man who was found murdered in his mansion in 2006. Original story A three-judge panel of the Court of Appeal in Hong Kong granted a request to American Nancy Kissel, who was convicted of killing her husband in 2003, to file a second appeal before the territory's high court. Kissel was sentenced to life in prison for murdering her investment banker husband Robert Kissel, by lacing his milkshake with sedatives, then fatally bashing his head with a metal ornament. The trial made worldwide headlines because of its allegations of drug abuse, kinky sex and adultery. In the decision that was made by the panel today, the Court of Appeal sided with Kissel's lawyers that the trial judge improperly allowed statements from several friends to be submitted as evidence. Kissel, who admitted to killing her husband, testified that Robert was an erratic whiskey swilling workaholic who also snorted cocaine and forced her to have painful anal sex. The American couple and their three children moved to Hong Kong in 1997 for Robert's investment banking job. At the time of his murder, he was hired by Merrill Lynch to head its distressed assets business in Asia outside of Japan. Court documents stated that Kissel killed her husband in order to be with her lover Michael Del Priore, who was a married electrical repairman, who had worked on her Vermont home. Kissel lost her first appeal last October. Robet Kissel was the brother of Andrew Kissel, the Greenwich, CT real estate developer, who was found murdered in his home. Comment
