A Pasadena man has been sentenced to life in prison for killing his wife as she was preparing to leave him. Anne Arundel County Circuit Judge Alison L. Asti sentenced Stephen Richard Salb, 58, on Friday, agreeing with the sentence prosecutors sought for the July 2011 fatal stabbing of Jill Teets Salb, 38. "It was the ultimate in domestic violence," said prosecutor Anne Colt Leitess. "She was going to leave him and he wasn't going to have that. " Leitess said the victim had nine stab wounds, but more than 100 cuts - which Leitess said indicated that she tried to fight off her husband.

A Pasadena man accused of killing his wife with nine stab wounds and 92 knife slashes admitted Tuesday morning that prosecutors had enough evidence to convict him of first-degree murder. Stephen Richard Salb, 57, entered an Alford plea in the July 2011 slaying of his wife, Jill Teets Salb, 38, in Anne Arundel County Circuit Court. The plea means Salb maintains his innocence while acknowledging he could be convicted. Salb faces life in prison, a sentence prosecutor Anne Leitess said the state will recommend at his November sentencing hearing.
