Nightmare in Suburbia: Till Death Us Do Part S3E4 | A True Story

[@nancycurtis488]

And losing a child is so incredibly painful. I lost my oldest son 4 years ago just 3 days before his 54th birthday…he was also born in 1965. So smart, such a wonderful person. My son’s name was also Richard….James Richard. He worked his way through college, became a CPA immediately after college. His death is still an open homicide investigation. He owned his own accounting firm in Allen, Texas. I miss him so very, very much.

Insurance companies should personally meet the person who is supposed to have taken the life insurance policy and should verify their identity.

[@DaniHMcV]

They don’t care. As long as customers pay their premiums, they’re not worried about any sinister reasons for getting the insurance. Greed asks no questions.

[@RedheadLondon]

It doesn't stop the murders. Google Justin Barber who killed his wife on a beach in Florida. There's video documentaries on it. She had a $2 million life policy and and it was payable to him. She knew about the policy, but still went on a lonely beach walk at night. He shot her and pretended it was a random mugging. Similar to this. He has got life in prison, and still says he didn't do it.

[@anupamsircar111]

It is so great to see all institutions working together honestly and sincerely to see that justice is done and the victim's family gets a closure. I am an Indian and am sorry to say that this almost never happens in my country. Bribing and counter-bribing; pilferage, tampering, and destruction of evidence by the investigating agencies themselves; incompetence; and everything that can muck up a case all come together invariably in almost every case so that no one ever gets any justice. Citizens who are hoping for something from the justice system just waste decades of their time, money, energy, and resources getting nothing in the end. This case took under two years; it would not get solved here in 20 years. Here, Christopher would be told that the police had found the car and let him decide what he wanted to do about it: For a little bit of bribe (say 500 Pounds), Chris would be allowed to go burn the vehicle and come back to the police station!!! For a little bit more, police would themselves do it for him!!!

[@ridehead8771]

Amazing job by the police for not delaying the arrest of this murderer. But the 25 years imprisonment is a joke, should have been life with no parole.

What always shocks me about crimes like these, is how often the perpetrators are absolute idiots! In today’s world, with DNA advancements, GPS trackers, cell phone data, and CCTV and/or private security cameras everywhere, how could one think they’ll get away with murder…especially murdering a spouse? Even worse, it’s insane how often these monsters fail to get rid of incriminating evidence, which ties them directly to their crime!

[@nataliesutherland7222]

I agree! The sheer stupidity just baffles me

[@sampsonroofing7377]

Exactly. Did he think the police would ask around town for a few hours, and then move on to more important matters, allowing him to enjoy his financial windfall?

[@isabellancali5388]

A lot of these murderers are narcissistic and believe that they are invincible and that the law can’t touch them. They live in their own world with them as the “stars” and “victim.”

[@TheDarkDresser]

It works in reverse also. I often watch the evening news of a well-known Caribbean island, and it astounds me how many people there appear to get away with murder, either because they are considered physically attractive or are of a high socio-economic status and therefore well-connected. Other times it's gullibility, laziness and/or incompetence on the part of investigators; a heavy case load also adds to it. If a dead male prostitute was found in a politically -connected person's expensive home, then the investigation would stall for years and likely never solved. In one incident just the person posting on social media how distraught he was was about the death of a group of family members was enough for him to walk free, despite the fact that his account of what happened would change depending on what turned up, and so he would often backtrack/contradict himself, and the investigators saw nothing suspicious about it.

[@oldcollegecoed]

@@TheDarkDresser Also very true! They either aren’t charged or they can afford the best attorneys to represent them!

I'll never understand how someone can say they love someone then attempt to murderthem. Smh

[@aglaisio]

Bless you Collette's mother, I was a social worker in Chesterfield and my son was born there, so I know the area well. May your beautiful daughter rest in peace. Too bad there isn't a death penalty is all I can say for that lowlife.

Those police need to be greatly commended for their great work. Tragic case.

England has the same damn problem the rest of the countries do.

[@user-jy3zl2vp4b]

But, thankfully, on a much SMALLER scale than here in the States. We have something seriously wrong here. And the guns don't help the situation.

[@daintyflygirl4va]

What a cruel husband

Thoughts and prayers to Collete's family.

[@aimaradiaz1840]

Only 25 years? Here in Florida, USA, he would have probably gotten the death penalty , if not, life in prison without the possibility of parole.

[@mneves3079]

Same in Canada life= 25 years and criminals are released earlier for good conduct😮

[@bluebellmcloughlin]

In Ireland its even worse he probably would have only served about 10 years here like every thing in my country its a joke

[@tradeladder146]

The Death Penalty is all about Revenge and not Punishment, glad we dont have it in Europe, its been proven time and time again that the Death Penalty is not a deterrent, the Murder rate in Florida for example is a national disgrace, just like Ron Desantis. 😒

[@andream2110]

Hardly a deterrent is it ?

[@aimaradiaz1840]

@@andream2110 the thing is that if you take the life of someone premeditated and in such a cruel way, you don’t deserve to live. Now, remember , America is a huge country, almost the size of Western Europe. So yes, you will hear in the news more about this type of murders.

[@yolandasoro]

That is so sad my condolence to the family❤😮❤

[@MaryLove-d5w]

So sad, done out of pure greed. He was an abuser, a financial abuser, and they are capable of anything. Sometimes it’s worse because they are so secretive and calculating. So sorry for her family, it’s destroys your trust in people.

[@mominlok4042]

It's difficult to trust anyone 😢

[@patwhite7970]

The investigation team did a great job.
