      Cheating is never the answer. And, if you truly feel that someone is the love of your life, you shouldn't have to trap them with threats and ultimatums. Either it's mutual or it's not. If not, then for your own sanity, just let them go. And if you or the other person are already in a relationship, then get out of it before pursuing yet another relationship. It ALWAYS ends badly!
      I've been married for over 20 years, and I can't imagine ever cheating. Like the OP said, the grass is greenest wherever it's being watered, so take care of the relationship you have. We all have flaws, and you can't expect a new relationship to be flawless, so nurture what you do have, or expect the same amount of problems with whatever new flame you decide to pick up.

    The cop who took the gun from the perpetrator's car was an accessory after the fact, a charge that would send an ordinary citizen to prison for at least five years. His charges get dropped and he gets to retire with a full pension. There is more than one tier of "justice" in our country.

That Chapter retold this incident SPOT ON, all the way down to Shawna’s husband Ken saying verbatim that he and Shawna could get back together and he would raise Ig’s baby as his own. This happened so many years ago and it’s still hard for me to wrap my head around. Heather was innocent In this whole thing and did nothing but love her husband, she never deserved any of this!

    This reminds me of the Stephanie Lazarus case, the female cop who killed her ex-lover's wife. Particularly the interview, with both women somehow having far worse acting skills than people with NO law enforcement background. Both of them thought they could be convincing with the whole "Oh I understand, you have to do your job" thing, to their coworker interviewing them, but from there just utterly FAILED at acting confused and shocked that anyone could think they did it. I don't think Lazarus tried the 'poor helpless little woman' thing with sobbing like this chick (she was more of a tomboy so she went more 'amused at the ridiculousness of all this' route that a dude would go). But both times, I'm watching and thinking, even with zero background information I would know this person is lying.

And second, just how did she think this would all play out? Murder someone in front of a group of people and hope they think it's your husband? The underwear thing is also weird....if she planned to plant them as evidence somewhere, her bodily fluids would still be on them (assuming she wasn't doubled up with her own underwear and a pad) and would still link it back to her. This was just a straight up stupid plan. 🙄

      With all due respect, the stereotype goes that usually those that decide to become police officers are people that feel the need to exert power over others, which they might’ve not had before. Or were bullies before themselves. Obviously not all, but I’d ignorantly say that it could very well be this insecurity that leads to the “need” to have an affair. Those who cheat are insecure, selfish, and need some shallow satisfaction. I do not wish to think this way about the majority of our police force, but if you’re even saying cheating runs rampant in these fields, I’d assume it’s a fault in basic human decency and morality.

      It's the same with teachers and school personnel - same again with politics - there are many professions that seem to fuel inter-relationships. It's often because the people involved naturally understand the pressure of the job role/profession, the hours, the ins and outs, the intrigue, all the admin/paperwork and the pay issues, all of the professional development and travel opportunities etc. It's because all this is understood "without being said" and therefore you automatically have a sense of kinship and trust. This can then progress quickly beyond friendship into some kind of sexual relationship. Often it is honest - and people get married to those in the same or similar profession. Sometimes it is affairs and other types of inappropriate relationships (e.g. positions of power and trust).

Then lost her life. She was lucky enough not to bear witness her own daughter's death I guess. I can only imagine how her years must have been. And how much her own husband failed her.

      If I was going to be murdered, I would definitely take this way to go out (with simply being shot a couple of times and dying immediately) over some of the extremely fucked up and absolutely horrendous murders we have seen on this channel in the past. At least there was no drawn out suffering in Heather’s death.

She made a move on Heather’s husband because her own husband didn’t excite her anymore, and when he finally had enough of her too it sent her into a spiral. She went from a small town 10 to a 4 in the dark and her value was gone.

    Poor Heather was grieving and depressed and her husband did nothing to help her, apparently. I get it, after Heather started to distance herself due to her depression, I'm sure it wasn't exactly easy on him either, but there's no excuse for cheating. If he didn't want to be with her anymore, then he should have just left her. It's sad that Heather ultimately ended up dying because her husband couldn't keep it in his pants.
    Instead of being a strong foundation for her in her time of need, he ultimately only thought of himself and his desires.

      We don’t know whether or not Ignacio had been there for Heather and was a good husband for a long time after she began suffering her losses/developed mental illness. We don’t know how long Heather had been withdrawn for.
      Perhaps Ignacio was just really lonely/starved for emotional & physical affection because Heather was inconsolable and not getting better over time - and perhaps he didn’t tell her/leave her when he wanted to have that affair because he feared that she was so depressed/unstable that she might be suicidal if she were to suffer yet another heartbreak/big loss. She might have already been suicidal for all we know (it’s quite common amongst chronically depressed people).
      Point is, we shouldn’t make assumptions.

      It’s so easy to judge people and situations you don’t know, isn’t it?
      I wonder how you would feel if people scrutinized your life and poor decisions (even though in this case, it might not have been a poor decision, because he deserved to live too, and if she was so detached from him for many years and was also suicidal, then him cheating might have been the only solution at the time to still continue living his life where it isn’t empty af for him too - people need love and affection in their lives - but doing it in a way where he didn’t risk his wife ending her life…. I bet the bank that there wasn’t a thought in his mind that Shawna would have been capable of doing what she did when he decided to cheat with her).
      I will say though that it was absolutely idiotic for him to not use protection with her… And he not only did it at least once the first time she got pregnant, but at least a second time as well.
      That was just absolutely _DUMB,_ and I cannot think of one reasonable excuse for that - it was just him just being in the heat of the moment and wanting it to feel as good as possible. No way around that!
      Anyways, I’m sure everything you do is totally moral and inexcusable no matter the circumstances, right? I am an atheist, but there is something to the Biblical line of “let he who is sinless cast the first stone…” (or something really close to that; you get the idea).
      No matter what he did, he was not responsible for the murder of his wife, and people like you who are insinuating that he was are fucked up. Shit in life is messy, and not always as black-and-white as people like you seem to believe. Nobody - _NOBODY_ - is perfect. And there is not always an easy solution to a huge problem.
      If she was suicidal, then this might have been the only solution for him to still continue living his life without getting extremely depressed himself, but still protecting her with compassion for keeping it a secret and not leaving her until she became emotionally stable enough to handle him leaving her.
      I have been cheated on before when I was in such a depressed despondent state for a long time that I can understand why they cheated on me and kept it a secret. It’s hard to blame when I was very checked out of participating in the relationship for so long because of my emotional state.
      It was a small mercy that they didn’t pour salt in the wound at that time by leaving me then (because I would _NOT_ have been able to handle that then), but they deserved to live too, and have a connection with someone else when I was utterly incapable of providing that for them for much too long.
