That includes Christine, obv.

In the six months before the killings, Magalhães and Banfield went on a trip to New York City together, and took romantic pictures together, Clingan said. The prosecutor also said other women had informed detectives that Banfield participated in multiple extramarital affairs during his marriage.
“Multiple, credible women confirmed this fact including one, in particular, who told them that during the course of her affair with this defendant a few years ago he would constantly promise to leave his wife,” Clingan said. “Eventually he told her, ‘It would be so much easier for us if she was not around.’ ”

Some of these women may have been here, this has been around since first thread, perhaps deleted at urging of Tess Banfield. There were similar, now deleted posts on WS. He had had affairs when they lived on LI too, maybe CB believed relocation might help stop.

How do they know he did that!? Maybe his fingerprints were detected on the items?

What is this "staying with me" when both are likely to be in cells for decades?

Didn't JPM's lawyer bring that up at a hearing? Surely LE has access to the profile that was posted for her and they have consistently claimed it was created by BB and/or AP.
It's all something of a red herring, esp re: her case. She said she shot him when he was on the ground, not a threat. He's dead now. That is enough to convict her without all these salacious attempts at misdirection and smearing of the 2 victims, may they RIP.
Will be interesting to hear more of the details they have about the ruse and how Joe was lured.
Big Momma heading off to FFX jail playing mafia underling making threats, it's like a poorly written movie script.
