Quote"I'm trying to reach Belle. I'm sorry to tell you this, but your husband is having an affair with my wife," the shocking voicemail said.

At the time, in March 2020, the couple and their two youngest children had gone to quarantine at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic at their $7.5 million second home in Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, when her husband Henry Davis' hedge fund and Burden's legal job had gone remote.

Burden said she never got an adequate explanation from Davis as to why their marriage of 21 years had come to such an abrupt end, and he then reportedly stopped taking her calls.

QuoteBarnes' ex-wife, Svetlana Koptyaeva, had taken their children to her native Russia following bitter divorce and child custody proceedings in Montgomery County, Texas. Upon learning of Barnes' arrival in Russia, his family says she contacted law enforcement in Moscow and accused him of having abused the two boys.

"[She] did not want him to have access to his children, so she made the worst possible accusation that she could come up with," Margaret Aaron, Barnes' sister, told ABC News.

Moscow prosecutors alleged that he abused his sons in suburban Houston, even though Texas law enforcement says they had no involvement in the Russian trial and previously found those allegations to not be credible after conducting their own investigation in response to Koptyaeva's claims.

QuoteJennair Gerardot, 48, broke into the house of Meredith Chapman, 33, and ambushed her as she returned home on Monday evening.

Investigators say Mrs Gerardot may have worn a disguise. She sent her husband texts revealing her revenge plan.

"You had a man who was married who was having an affair with this other woman," Supt Colarulo said.

Quote"Here comes Meredith. She's just telling me such a different story, that I'm good at what I do. That she said...I'd never heard this from Jennair's lips ever...that I'm such a wonderful man," Mark Gerardot said. "That just made an impression on me. Here's this woman who I think is amazing saying that she thinks I'm a wonderful man."

When Jennair Gerardot moved north in December 2017, Mark Gerardot said she could sense he was distant, and it wasn't long before she confronted him about her suspicions that there could be another woman.

"She finally asked me, 'What is up with you? You're acting different,'" Mark Gerardot said. "She said specifically, 'It's Meredith, isn't it?'"

Quote"She had planted recording devices in his office," Dr. Janice Harper, a writing coach working with Geradot on a book, said.

Mark Gerardot says he realized his wife had methodically implanted listening devices in many of his clothes and had a daily routine of logging his conversations.

In credit card statements, he says he also discovered transactions for a lock-picking kit he believes she used to break into his office, computer hacking software, DNA testing for his clothes and a sophisticated GPS tracking system she personally installed on both his and Chapman's cars.
