She worked at the BBC. Years later, she discovered her husband’s secret. She paid for it with her life

David Chenery was just 16 years old when he dropped out of school to work as a truck driver for his father’s company. 5 years later, he married Fay Robinson, with whom he had two children, but it was not a success. He did not shy away from , and the cup of bitterness overflowed when he announced that with the help of the spirit of the Wild Fox he could talk to the dead. – I went to a spiritualist meeting, saw spiritual healings and tarot readings. I have been told that my bonds with spirits are strong. I felt I had reached home – in one of the interviews.

They met at a séance. After a few weeks they were already married

Soon after, he organized séances during which he spread the tarot and provided participants with information about their deceased loved ones. It was during one of these meetings in the summer of 1997 that he met Diane Wickens. After only 6 weeks of dating, they moved in together and got married shortly thereafter. During this time, David co-founded the Crowborough Spiritualist Church, which was mainly attended by women. It goes without saying that he cheated on his wife with most of them. – He used personal information about women to control them – said Marlene Thompson in The Daily Mail. – He once pinched my butt when we were leaving church together, and then he suggested an affair – she added.

It turned out that among his followers he claimed that he had health problems and that his wife was an alcoholic and he intended to divorce her. That’s why he borrowed enormous sums of money from them, allegedly for alternative therapies and lawyers. However, this is not the end of the revelations. David was also interested in men, which resulted in him marrying an osteopath. Their passionate relationship lasted 4 years and ended only when he proposed a threesome to the man.

She accidentally discovered her husband’s affairs. He murdered her for this

Diane had no idea that her husband was leading a double life. Everything changed when, on January 22, 2008, she received a telephone bill showing three unknown numbers regularly contacting her husband. She decided to call them, but she didn’t expect what she found out. One of them was a chat room for homosexual men, and the other two belonged to David’s lovers. After returning home, she confronted him with her discovery, which led to tragedy. In a fit of fury, the man buried her and her body in the forest.

The next day he acted as if nothing had happened. He cashed in on her expensive jewelry and then took one of his mistresses shopping. Meanwhile, the BBC was getting worried because Diane didn’t show up for work, even though she was always punctual. They contacted David, who stated that they had both arrived in London by train and went their separate ways. The case was reported to the police, and investigators quickly determined that his version of events was a lie.

On January 31, David Chenery-Wickens was arrested and charged by his wife, but he pleaded not guilty. First he claimed that she had left him, and later that she had taken her own life. However, there was no evidence of his guilt and he was quickly released on bail. Only in mid-May, a woman walking her dog found the remains, which, as it turned out, belonged to the missing woman. The same day, her husband was imprisoned again, but he still maintained his innocence. However, the court did not believe it and on March 2, 2009, sentenced him to life imprisonment with the possibility of applying for parole after 18 years.
