Wikipedia, December 30, 2014 (Inga Artamonova; Inga Grigoryevna Artamonova (Russian: Инга Григорьевна Артамонова = Inga Grigorʹevna Artamonova; 29 August 1936 in Moscow-4 January 1966 in Moscow) was a Soviet speed skater, the first four-time Allround World Champion in women's speed skating history. After her marriage in 1959 to fellow speed skater Gennady Voronin), she was also known as Inga Voronina (Russian: Инга Воронина = Inga Voronina); murdered by her husband Gennady)
Sports-Reference/Olympic sports website, December 30, 2014 (under Gennady Voronin: In 1959 Voronin married Inga Artamonova, one of the best female all-around speed skaters of the late 1950s and early 1960s, who won four World All-Around titles (1957, 1958, 1962, 1965), but missed both the 1960 and 1964 Olympics due to injury. Voronin was jealous of his wife, as her skating career was in ascendance, while his declined. He began to abuse alcohol, which led to domestic violence that ended on 4 January 1966 with Voronin stabbing his wife with a knife several times that resulted in her death. Although he never admitted to murdering his wife, saying it was an accident, he was sentenced to 10 years in prison.)
