This is a strange one (at least to me).

Male dies after a cardiac arrest, so I assume drugs? But murder? Obviously the Police know more than is in the public domain.

Odd isn't it, the original 999 call was cardiac arrest but cause of death won't be known until the post mortem.

I'm thinking drugs and sex game perhaps?

The article states "called to a report of a man in his 30s in cardiac arrest "

Clearly when they got there it's seems there was more to it

I am guessing that the 999 call was for ambulance, and it was the ambulance crew who decided to call Police? Because something made them suspicious, perhaps drugs, perhaps something else.

Pretty commonplace for cardiac arrests calls to automatically be passed to the Police as most cars are equipped with defibrillators and often patrols are closer than ambulance crews

All our response/traffic cars carried them and the Armed Response also had advanced trauma kits
Where I was heart attacks in the street would also trigger fire response for the above reasons + numbers for CPR

Speculation on here is rife. Sex games? Drugs? Stabbing? Based on zero evidence. Ph at it's worst.

It is likely they were taking cocaine, mixed with alcohol it forms a new compound in the body called cocaethylene which increases the risk of cardiac arrest by an astonishing amount.

She may have been arrested because it was her sniff.

Well, since I have enough posts to be able to use NP&E, I'm allowed to have a go.

Based on the evidence presented, I reckon this is exactly what happened:

They were reviewing the Christmas dinner, the husband made a comment, "You wouldn't say boo to a goose."
She replied with, "Yes, you're right. Being a man who looks powerfully-built and is a director of 3 companies, can you help me to learn this key survival skill?"
He replied, "Sure. Let me get my sound level meter."

So she started quietly saying boo to the defrosting goose, incrementally increasing the loudness with him giving feedback, checking the meter and studying the goose sitting in the oven tray, taking meticulous notes to later post his findings on Pistonheads.

She got carried away and at some point with the volume of her voice, she scared the husband who had a heart attack and died.

Police were called because they heard her shouting.

I think you'll agree that this is exactly what happened.

It was either the thought of the in-laws visiting, the prospect of a week of cold turkey sandwiches or looking at the TV guide for Christmas day and simply lost the will to live.

Indeed. I have only known 1 man who killed anyone in a non military context.

He killed his wife with a kitchen knife.

Initial assumption of police friends and neighbours: evil abusive husband, finally killed wife in fit of rage.

Truth? Loving husband struggling to deal withe wife with serious mental problems with inadequate support. Wife attacked him with knife, they struggled with it and she ended up with a single stab wound that tragically proved fatal.

At least he did not get convicted. He did have to explain, a few years later, to two lovely little girls why they had no Mum . I can't imagine many conversations more difficult.

That doesn't explain "suspicion of murder".

Russian anecdote:

A woman phones for an ambulance, "Come quickly, my husband is dying, he's eaten some poisonous mushrooms."

The paramedics rush over, only to be confronted by the battered, bruised and bleeding body of a now lifeless man. Mystified they ask the wife, "We were told he had eaten poisonous mushrooms; why is he all battered and bleeding?

She replies, "Because he didn't want to eat them".

Also a post-mortem scheduled for today, isn't that unusual?

More to this than meets the eye.

No, not when you have a live homicide investigation and a person in custody
