Hi everyone, haven’t been on WS in a minute.
I don’t think it was premeditated. Everything that follows is my opinion and pure speculation. My thoughts:
CW begins affair with coworker.
While SW is in NC with the kids, CW and gf stay the night together.
Intuition tells SW that something is wrong. Maybe she called home and he wasn’t there. Maybe when she called to say goodnight his voice was different. This is when she begins to suspect an affair.
Maybe SW did some investigating. Maybe they argued about his Facebook page. Maybe location tags didn’t match up. Maybe he was liking posts on someone’s page. Maybe in their arguing, he tells SW “You’re crazy, I’m not cheating, and to show you how little I care about Facebook, I’ll just delete my account” Because maybe he knew SW had only scratched the surface of what could be uncovered.
He deletes his account.
SW and the girls return from NC.
Now SW is paying closer attention. She tells friends her suspicions.
While she is on her work trip, something happens where she has pretty much convinced herself that he IS cheating. Because up until then she probably didn’t want to believe it. Maybe she catches him in a lie. Maybe she sees some incriminating phone records or something to that effect. This is when she starts to feel sick.
She walks into the house after her flight and immediately confronts CW. They fight.
SW says something that infuriates CW and he strangles her. The girls see. He strangles the girls.
He brings the deceased to his job because the best he could come up with is to hide them all in the oil tanks. SW doesn’t fit in the opening. Plan B: bury her.
I think he thought he’d have at least 24 hours to either stage a crime scene or make it look like she ran off. THANK GOD FOR NUA! I’m thinking by leaving her phone at home he was going to say she was home that day and he tucked everyone into bed Monday night and she didn’t go missing until Tuesday.
CW doesn’t know what LE knows so he says he knows nothing. He says when he asked for a separation they were both upset and crying because he doesn’t know if the neighbors heard. He denies the affair. LE has not given him any indication that he is a suspect. They ask him in for an interview and ask his story. Then they drop on him “why did you back your truck up to the garage” “why did you go to work so early” “we found a bedsheet of yours at your job” “the drone picked up images of some freshly moved earth that we’re about to go dig up” “we know you’re having an affair because xyz” etc. CW knows this is bad for him. He asks to speak to dad. He has come up with this story and wants to try it out on his father before he tells the cops, like a dress rehearsal. He tells his dad his story. He feels like he was convincing enough to go ahead and tell LE.
Ur probably right.
