Killer Husband Realizes Detectives Found The Messages He Sent From Her Phone

from Coffeehouse Crime · host Coffeehouse Crime

A killer husband's web of lies collapses when detectives confront him with the messages he sent from his wife's phone. In a chilling case from the UK, Michael Thompson staged his wife's murder to look like a suicide, even sending texts from her device to cover his tracks [citation:5]. When her daughter pointed out a spelling mistake in the messages—"too" instead of "to"—detectives realized the truth [citation:5]. In another case, Spencer was caught in his own lies when he claimed his wife had a fatal fall, but investigators revealed they had the ring doorbell footage and his text messages, forcing him to confess [citation:1].
