Landscaper says Terri Horman wanted him to kill her husband!

[CharlestonGal]

Forgive me, I was busy yesterday celebrating my country's Independence. I popped in and saw this astonishing thread late in the afternoon. I had an immediate thought and understanding. There have been so many comments on this, it's likely someone already said this. I read this thread here and there, but not every comment.

I feel that trying to hire Kaine's murder dovetails right into the theory that Terri is having an extramarital affair, has decided she wants to be with this person. When she's unable to effect Kaine's death, perhaps it occurs to her that with Kaine dead, Kyron would go to Desiree, NOT Terri. So she develops a different plan.

Imagine, that she orchestrates Kyron's disappearance. Hands Kyron off to her paramour, (Kyron may even know this person, and feel comfortable and familiar)

This person has many hours to take Kyron far far away, he might have even left the country. Perhaps with false ID, boarded a flight... Who knows, but in my story those two are long gone.

The plan then was that at some point, Terri leaves Kaine, and takes The other two children (hers biologically) with her to go meet Kyron and her new love.

I think she really did think of Kyron as hers, and couldn't figure out how to leave Kaine, and still keep Kyron.

This would also explain the confidence that Kyron is alive.

This is a theory only, based on speculation.

That theory is definitely a best case scenario for Kyron and it would be really nice if that were the case. I'm not judging men who have affairs with married women when I say this, but I find it highly unlikely that a man sleeping with a married woman is interested in her child's welfare to that extent. Kidnapping is a serious offense and it's unlikely that a lover would not only agree to take care of his married lover's stepchild, possibly for years, but expose himself to kidnapping charges in the process.

Sorry, but most men who sleep with married women are not that noble to give up their home, their job, their family ties and go on the run with a child they'll have to hide and take care of. While some of these guys have certainly been seduced into killing the husband or some such, I've never heard of a case of one sacrificing their daily existence for the child of a lover.

Well being as reported that Kaine had an affair, you would think divorce would have been the best option.
Child custody is another thing.
I assume TH would not have gotten custody of Kyron, she may have had no problem with custody of their daughter though.
If they had , had a divorce based on Kaine's cheating , who do you suppose would have gotten custody of Kyron ? Kaine or Desiree ?

Kaine had custody of Kyron and as it wasnt dependent on him having of him being married to Terri i fail to see why he would have gone to Desirees in the event of a divorce. However ..we do know that Terri had a history of affairs ( according to her ex husband) and IMO SHE was probably having a affair with the gardener. Because Terri has said he was having a affair it means nothing to me. If Terri said the sky was blue I would have to check myself ..i think she says whatever suits her at the time.

I truly don't think this case is complex. On the contrary, I think it's the same old common theme of jealousy, rage, and spite. If what has been reported about the landscaper is true (ie that Terri wanted him to kill Kaine because Kaine had hurt her with an extramarital affair) it seems to me that Terri was highly aggravated about Kaine's betrayal - aggravated enough to have him killed over it. When she couldn't make that happen, she hurt him the best way she knew how - through the child. Spiteful parents use their children against each other all the time, though usually short of killing them, but the theme is not new at all.

Another simple chain of events is that Kyron knew something he wasn't supposed to know about Terri, or her plots, and she silenced him.

I'm just not seeing anything exotic about this case at all. It's the usual tawdry tale of jealousy, greed, revenge, lies, secrets, affairs and rage that children, unfortunately, often pay the price for.

With every strange twist in this family, I very well think this is plausible.

Would someone please link me to the information that Kaine had an affair and that's the reason Terri wanted him killed?

Or is that just a rumor at this point?

Its just a rumour at this point. I THINK she supposedly told the gardener/whatever you want to call him that she had a miserable marriage cos he had a affair etc.

MOO

If TH did have something to do with Kyron's disappearance then it seems to me it was premeditated. Her taking the picture of him just before he left for school seems a bit hinky. JMO

 

[bayougirl]

Did anyone else see GMA this morning? Newbie here and I don't know how to link but they were talking about this murder-for-hire but also stated that TH had been investigated in the past for "poor parenting skills" relating to her older son and Kyron.

According to sources, Terri Horman had described being in a bad marriage and had claimed that Kaine had "hurt" her by having an extra-marital relationship.

I think it's anybody's guess at this point whether it's the true reason or just a sob story to justify something unjustifiable.

Well who is the source? The 'landscaper' ?

This just gets weirder and weirder. Lord only knows what we're going to be hit with next.

It is being reported that the landscaper-lawn guy has claimed Terri wanted Kaine killed because he had an affiar and he hurt her.
The link is located somewhere in the last two threads related to this topic. JMo

That was in relation to her drunk driving conviction in 2005. I am pretty sure it is standard for DHS to get involved when there is a conviction in a child endangerment case, as was in this situation. She got caught driving under the influence with her then 11 year old son in the car.

 

[greenpalm]

That would be the best case scenerio but I just don't think that is what happened. With her possibly looking at charges of conspiring to have her husband killed and suspicion of her involvment in Kyron's disappearance surely she would have given up Kyron's location if he were still with us. I just can't see her going this long if she had a way to end it. I would also hope that if Kyron were still alive she would make some kind of plea in return for his safe homecoming.

Well, sure, she's been tried and convicted and sentenced by the public and the media, but, they haven't charged her with a single thing yet, presumably they don't have enough evidence. Why would she spill the beans when there is still a chance she could walk?

Charlestongal I think you are hitting the nail on the head.....but I would also add her son being sent away because he could not get on with Kaine being part of her rage and subsequent retaliation.....in fact I think that is what set it all off........affair, kicking her son out and being stuck playing mum to his child.....

and she has that red hair!!! and please before anyone jumps on me for that remark I am a redhead...so had to mention it....

One thing that really did have me wondering about what type of person she was is the report re her second husband who is not the bio dad of her eldest son but did adopt him from a young age (2 or 3 I think). After they divorced and while she was with Kaine, and a bit further down the track, she took this guy to court to get child support from him and got awarded a backpay.......

I dont know , this does not seem right to me and seems very pushy on her part....I know a lot of you may disagree with me but him adopting her child was a very wonderful thing to do for her and meant he had faith in the marriage and if it ended because of her affairs and she was with another man I dont know........anyhow that is me.......I wouldnt try to get money out of him.....

All by itself, there's nothing at all strange about taking a picture of your son when he's happy and excited. The mood is contagious. But to then be involved in any way in his disappearance, makes the same behavior look like part of a premeditated plan, I totally agree.

 

[greenpalm]

Hi Greenpalm...I read your theory and thought.....yeah that is plausible.....because I am finding it hard beleiving that she could harm him if she bought him up from such a young age.........

However I also think the truth is because of a more ugly reason......getting back at the husband for the loss of her son or just not liking him.....

I know this goes into gossip but I have read a couple of times in the comments section of news sites locals saying that it was well known she did not like him and that the teachers knew she didnt like him......also looking into the photos on her facebook she really did have hardly any pictures of Kyron, it was all her daughter and it was obvious how she adored her.....

But I do hope your theory is true....

I never saw her Facebook page before it was made private, so, to my eyes what you say about it, and also what you say about people saying Terri did not like Kyron are just rumors. I have read as many that say the opposite, that she had plenty of pictures of both children, that she called him her son, never "stepson" and that she raised him as her own. From my perspective I can't verify the alleged facebook content, so my theory still matches verified info. Of course I don't know if I believe my theory. I just think it is plausible because it does not contradict current verifiable info.

Although..a simpler solution would have been to just take all three children one day while Kaine was at work, and disappear herself.

Yeah, that put me off, too. And to make things worse the poor guy is paying child support for a child he doesn't see who is living with his bio father. I wonder if TH kept that money or sent it to the dad. I mean seriously who would do that? I was married to a guy that my daughter called daddy and it didn't work out and someone told me that I could ask for child support since I lived in WA at the time and I guess they could make step parents pay in some cases. I wouldn't even consider that. It is just morally wrong IMO. If he were still in his life and seeing him I could understand but to me that says a lot about her character. Maybe she didn't try to get someone to kill her husband but it wouldn't surprise me if she did and money was part of the motivation.

Has LE verified the murder for hire story at this point? TIA...

 

[Donjeta]

LE said no comment at this point but they believe they'll have more to say later this week or so.
