Spade_Cooley 9,525 Posted February 22, 2017 She was cremated apparently, which really does fuck up the chances for any smoking guns there. But the fact that Stewart first encountered Bailey because they were both "grieving the loss of their partners".... oof. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Police now investigating the sudden death of his wife 7 years ago, alas there probably won't be any evidence by now. If they find evidence for that then I can see Stewart getting a whole life tariff.

Toast 16,140 Posted February 22, 2017 I'd personally give him a whole life tariff for throwing that little dog in there as well. Actually this is a case where I wish the punishment really would fit the crime. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,442 Posted February 22, 2017 So he possibly had something to do with his ex-wife dying (and more? supposition there as he's in his 50s and people dont just get bored and turn into potential serial killers one day) and met his latest victim looking for grieving widows? Fucking hell... It's The Other Woman Accomplice away from being the plot of Evil Under the Sun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
