Well, didn't she file for divorce? Wasn't that their entire claim in the early days, before the money came rolling in?

yes, but i think that was to protect the assets, I have no idea what is going on there.

FWIW there is a difference between communications and testimonial privilege. Marital privilege ceases once a divorce is finalized however there are some exceptions afaik.

Thank you!

I really don't know how the spousal privilege works with this case. However, when a person lives with another for decades, they surely get to know their habits and idiosyncrasies. I don't believe for one moment she knew nothing about something out of the ordinary. It defies logic IMO.

It's hard to believe for sure, or at least didn't have a suspicion. I am still keeping my mind open to all possibilities, but def see your view too!!

I see just what you mean on this testimonial privilege. Seeing that with testimonial privilege in a criminal case, a former spouse can no longer invoke it. (!) Checking for exceptions/New York specifically. Not seeing many/any as of yet.
