What kind of sick f*** does a thing like that? She needs to be put away and never see the light of day again, literally ever. Would you want to work with, shop in the grocery store with, live next to -- or hire as a baby sitter!!!!!! -- someone who participated in this sick plot? Which she freely admits to? Why did either of them think this was a good idea????

There is something very wrong with our judicial system that this is considered worthy of only one year in jail. Truely insane.

Type of windows installed at Banfield home reduce noise levels, salesman testifies
By Andrea Swalec
A window factory salesman testified about the unique, triple-pane windows installed at the Banfield home. He said he spoke with Brendan about the windows, which are “30% better in energy savings and noise level,” he said.

“When someone goes to a triple pane, that's another level. And that is a type of level where they're trying to do more than just protect the house from the sun,” he said.

Peres Magalhães testified earlier this week that Brendan had the home’s windows replaced so neighbors would not hear screams during the murders. She said he had her help test beforehand whether a scream from inside could be heard from outside.

Brendan’s defense attorney asked the salesman if Brendan spoke to him about noise concerns related to Washington Dulles International Airport or a nearby fire station. The salesman said “no.”

That you Tess? Still reaching for any basis to object to the prosecution of your demented son? I live in the neighborhood and saw your killer son so many times walking the husky and just by himself with that vacant stare of a psychopath. And you, in your white Camry (your mother in the blue Prius) driving in and out of the neighborhood with the hauteur of the “unjustly victimized”? GET OUT!!!

Omg. I read the telegram conversation. I wish I hadn’t. So disturbing on many levels.

My Takeaway on the telegram conversations was that Joe wanted to make sure that he didn’t cross any boundaries with who he thought was Christine. Wanted to make sure that he arrived when he was told and left when he was told and did only things that “she” consented to.

I wonder if this will have an effect on the fetish community — like it’s a major red flag if the only comms are via messages, and the person says don’t actually confirm the intent and limits with me when we meet in person. Hopefully no one ever does this again — I can see someone setting something like this up as revenge on an ex. Consent should always be confirmed in person.

I really hope so. Anyone on that website should take this case to heart to protect themselves and ensure they don't do harm to others.

The depravity of BB is astonishing. To think something like this up. To work toward it for months. To have conversations with a stranger and know you are sentencing him to death. And then, to not just murder your wife - the mother of your child - but to make her suffer, to make her last moments on earth unbearably painful. How did he even get to that point? It's unfathomable to me. Pure pure evil.

The truth of the matter is that Joe was engaging in risky behavior. Not behavior for which he should be murdered but risky behavior none the less. Meeting sex for strangers is risky.

Thank you Captain Obvious. Where would we be 1 million pages into this topic without you to educate us?

If Joe had not agreed to this, we wouldn’t be here would we?

What you should be asking or saying is that we wouldn’t be here if Brendan didn’t plot to murder his wife in cold blood. Like a Psychopath!

Did you read the telegram? The things he was talking about were violent and horrifying. Adding in comments about boundaries doesn’t discount that he was a terrifying man. That Christine had to be subjected to any part of that is beyond awful.

Is there a link to the Telegram transcript?

She was very unattractive, but dyed her hair blond, so he was like wow got someone worth blowing my marriage up for, but now she looks like an old overweight torta street vendor. His wife was way better looking. He looks like a total foolish idiot. IRS special agent, moron.

the murder isnt about the attractiveness or even the affair. Brendon wanted his wife dead, not because he loved Julianna. He simply used a dim witted woman to have a backup for his plan, a scape goat. He is a man that had many affairs and clearly was not capable of actual "love" at all. He is a sociopath who wanted to do a planned thrill kill. It has nothing to do with the au pair or his feelings or attraction to her.

Divorce would be a cheaper and safer option, don't you think so?
