"We started to argue. I controlled her with my hands but what happened next is completely forgotten. But I did bring her under control with force,"

He might have not planned to kill her initially, but in the end it definitely seemed to be his intend given the circumstances of her death and the fact that he stole her money afterwards to fund his low-life gambling addiction.
