I don't know what happened, and I certainly wouldn't suggest her husband did this before reasoning other than 'crime shows on television usually depict strangulation as a crime of passion executed by someone the victim knew' is given.
Crimes can go wrong, and quickly veer off in a direction the criminal didn't intend. Maybe someone noticed her driving that nice BMW somewhere between her downtown work and GPP home, and decided to follow and rob her, with no intention of killing. In the heat of the moment, if she put up a fight the criminal didn't expect, that might lead an unarmed assailant [[not everyone has a gun) to strangle. And after you've killed someone and you didn't plan on it, you're not going to take the car, the cards, or anything that can be traced or located.
