In his first and second interviews, Samak – a former Egyptian hockey international who was a member of the team of the England older than 40 – found his wife dead when he came up to use the bathroom in their semi -detached house in Droitwich, Worcestershire.
He then changed his story to say that he had found the 49-year-old in the action to stab himself.
He was then confronted with the fact that neighbors were awakened shortly after 3 o'clock in the morning by shouting a woman, but he did not call emergency services until 4.10 a.m.
Detectives accused him of using the hour to find out how he could hide his crime.
Samak, who was known as Sam, told the researchers that he could not control himself 'or do something' or could do something '.
He added: “I just cried … I didn't know if I should call Jo's mother or her brother for help.”

He said detectives that he worked as a coach, a lifeguard and a personal trainer, he was qualified in first aid and knew how to do resuscitation.
During the interview, the police accused him of making sounds on the 999 call that imitated resuscitation while it didn't really do.
In an earlier interview, the suspect cried when detectives told him that his wife would divorce him if she could.
The court heard that Mrs. Samak had entrusted her thoughts to friends, she went out for a drink with less than 48 hours before her death.
Hearing how Samak crashed their car, which means that cash from a severance payment that Mrs. Samak had planned to spend on vacation to Samak's home country should take place in that vehicle repairs, her friend Rachel Healey said: “You Must worship him. “
But Mrs. Samak, who had recently launched a new company with colleagues from her old company, said: 'No, I don't love him. I would separate from him if I could. '
She added: “He would never survive in the UK without me.”
The couple had met each other while Mrs. Samak was on holiday in Egypt in 2011 and he worked at the hotel where she was staying.
They married in 2015 and Samak landed a job coaching hockey on the prestigious Malvern College that lasted 18 months.
Samak claims that his wife has stabbed herself in the stomach and breast to struggle with her mental health and alcohol and drink two bottles of wine four times a week.
But public prosecutors said that instead he tried to characterize his wife as “a alcoholic who got out of hand to strengthen his report that Joanne took her own life.”
Jury members told that he experienced financial difficulties and 'had feelings' for a former female introduction to whom he had made contact again.
They also heard that Mrs. Samak enthusiastically planted her 50th birthday celebrations, including a trip to Paris with her best friend.
