Article is one sided.
So, why don't you tell us about the other side?
Regards,
Aren’t they all?
It's about a married couple but their marriage was apparently a very cold and unloving one. They both worked in the airlines, one a pilot and one a stewardess, and they had totally different schedules, often leaving their children home with a nanny.
The most telling part about the failed marriage was that they kept their money separate. Which in my opinion is a recipe for disaster in any relationship, married or not. A true couple should have the same financial goals and should share their resources equally.
In this case, the husband (pilot) made over triple that of the wife who was the stewardess. Yet he kept his money separate from her and indulged himself in whatever the hell he wanted to buy for himself, including a girlfriend in New Jersey. He left his wife to deal with household expenses on her much more meager stewardess salary.
Anyway, the wife finally smartened up and filed for divorce, which would have likely resulted in the courts splitting the assets between them and forcing the husband to reduce his standard of living through alimony and child support.
The husband could not deal with this and plotted her murder over several days by buying a dump truck, renting a woodchipper, among many other things. When she returned from Europe on one of her work assignments, he apparently killed her at home, stored her body in a freezer (that he also recently bought) and on a snowy night, drove to a nearby river where he chipped her frozen body (along with actual wood to make it look good) into the water.
The husband almost got away with it. It was almost the perfect murder. But the diligence of the wife's friends and a private investigator eventually turned up enough clues to get law enforcement (who were very reluctant to get involved) to investigate and the husband was eventually convicted - the first case in Connecticut a person was convicted of murder without a body. I highly recommend the book (true crime).
Anyway, my point of all of this is that a marriage certificate has little to do with how happy a couple is. Whether they "co-habitate" or are officially married, they need to truly be a couple and not be living separate lives.
Ya think?
