A WOMAN has been jailed after she stabbed her de facto husband to death when he stopped her playing her favourite Bruce Springsteen album.Karen Lee Cooper told arresting police: "I couldn’t even play Bruce Springsteen on my stereo - can you believe that? Can you believe that?" She later again told police: "I mean, who doesn’t like Bruce Springsteen?" "I’m 49 years old and I want to play my own music."In the Supreme Court in Brisbane today, Cooper, 50, was jailed for eight years. She pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of Kevin Lee Watson on July 8, 2006. She was originally charged with murder but the Crown accepted a manslaughter plea on the basis she had no intention to kill. The court heard Cooper stabbed Watson through the aorta after they had been drinking at their Cedar Grove home, south of Brisbane
