Yes, the motivations for intimate partner crimes are most often jealousy, followed by personal gain, and lastly, love.I'm just explaining one of the reasons why sleuths poke around at items like this. We can't know any motivations, we aren't inside anyone's heads. I'm not assuming, just answering the question about why some people are interested in the finances. And some people have posted about it.
I do not know how anyone could know what "financial strain" was for someone else. I tend to keep my financial worries inside my head, but other people talk about theirs quite a bit more. In my own marriage, we have worked out some checks and balances on spending, but I know people personally who are in really difficult financial straits in retirement, and they talk about it and act on it.
The more I think about this case, the more I think the evidence stacks up for an unlikely but possible "death by misadventure in the desert." But I don't know what LE knows (or what family members know). There seems to be some suspicion on RT, right? If those who suspect him want a full picture, they'll look into what's known about finances, that's for sure.
If LE really considers him a suspect I have no doubt they are looking into all these things.
We just have no idea what they know.
