A woman who has been married four times, two of them with murderous husbands, revealed the reasons for choosing this type of couple.
Teresa X. Roberts , a woman who suffered abuse in early childhood at the hands of her father and brother, told her story for Fox Nation’s special “Marrying a Murderer.”
The woman noted that when his brother went to prison, another inmate asked him if he could write to him. Both brothers agreed, so she and a convict became pen pals.
Teresa commented that after trying “regular dates”, dating men who were not incarcerated, she discovered that the difficulties of dealing with men without substance and boring dates were nothing that she I wanted.
“I realized that I only wanted letters… I really didn’t want to deal with exits anymore. So I found someone on a prison pen pal website called Friends Beyond the Wall. And that’s how I met my murderous husband”.
A man named Elmer John Werner III, was chosen by Teresa as her “murderous husband” and she reveals the three reasons for his choice:
“Number one, I wanted someone who was far away so I wouldn’t be tempted to visit. Number two, I wanted someone who would serve for a long time, so he wouldn’t go out and basically break my heart or hurt me. And number three, I wanted someone who was a little average, not super handsome, not horrible. And I found it on that website. And I said, ‘OK, perfect,’” said Roberts.
When asked if she would marry in prison again, the woman offered a concrete answer: “I have to say, obviously, that I would do it again, because I did it again”.
Cue Cameron Evans, is the fourth husband of Roberts and the second “murderer husband”.
The author of “Women who love men who they kill” and special guest of the special “Marrying a Murderer”, Sheila Isenberg, linked Teresa’s reasoning with her history of abuse:
“If you had an abusive past or if you were a victim in your childhood or in your first relationships of physical abuse, psychological abuse… you want to find a relationship in which no one can hurt, a relationship in which you are basically in control”. said Isenberg.
“She she wants to find someone she can control, and who is safe for her”, she added.
For her part, Nancy Grace, a crime expert, former prosecutor and Fox Nation host, noted: “These behind-bar murder matchups are very difficult. to understand for me: why do women marry men who murder? from across the United States choose convicted felons, often violent felons, as their life partners.
