Sordid Affairs

Research indicates that a person can experience a range of emotions upon learning of their spouse having an affair, including suicidal thoughts, anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. A recent story about a woman who mutilated the dead body (she died of natural causes) of a woman she learned had slept with her husband is a good example of how our emotions can get the best of us in such situations. Jodi Arias is yet another indication of extreme mental health issues coupled with an affair that ended in torture and murder. The following shocking stories detail more crimes committed after a person learned of an affair.

Cheating Man Beats Mistress as an “Apology” for Cheating While Girlfriend Cheers Him On

A man who had a fling with another woman recorded himself beating the lady unconscious while his wife cheered him on and encouraged the beating. The wife planned the attack as a way for her husband to “apologize” for having an affair.

Beyza Yurttas learned that Bulent Yuksek was secretly married after the two began a relationship. She immediately stopped seeing Yuksek upon finding out he was involved with someone else.

Unfortunately for Yurttas, Yuksek’s wife learned of the affair and concocted the beating. Beyza told Newsflash that she was devastated after learning that her lover was married.

On the day of the attack, Yuksek called her as she packed her belongings to move to another city. He told the victim he wanted to see her one last time. She agreed to meet him in Alanya on march 31.

Once she met him at the agreed upon location, he dragged her into his car, locked the doors, and began striking her with his fists. Yurttas says that Yuksek hit her “over and over again.”

Then, Yuksek suddenly calls his wife so she could watch the attack. She told Newsflash that he asked his wife if she liked it, to which she answered, “I love it, hit her once again, this time hit her for me.”

Yurttas was taken to a hospital and treated for her injuries. She said the ordeal has left her “terrified and shocked.”

Police took Yuksek to the station and questioned him, however, declined to file charges and released him a short time later.

Husband Fatally Stabs Wife in Heart After Catfishing to Prove She Was Cheating

In December 2020, 32-year-old Tanju Acar from Mugla, Turkey, suspected his wife was having an affair after she demanded a divorce. He decided to catfish his wife to find out. He sent a series of texts to the woman and had a few friends text her as well.

When he learned the wife was having an affair, he fatally stabbed her.

Tanju Acar, 32, from the south-western Turkish province of Mugla, allegedly came up with the scheme after his wife demanded a divorce. He also found out that infidelity is a mitigating circumstance for murder and that he could get a reduced sentence as result.

When he learned that his wife and mother of his two kids, 25-year-old Selvan Acar, had an affair, he stabbed her in the back deep enough that the blade pierced her heart.

Prior to the attack, Acar learned that infidelity was a mitigating circumstance for murder under a local law – and could get him a reduced sentence.

He then posed as another man and sent texts to his wife, also getting friends to message her.

Husband Kills Man He Thought Was Raping His Wife; She Was Having An Affair

This story takes us back to 2013 when 71-year-old Ralph Ward shot and killed a man he thought was raping his wife. Turns out, his wife was having an affair with the man. Nonetheless, Ward was acquitted of murder because the court said he acted in self-defense.

His much younger 41-year-old wife, Johnna Lynn, was having sex with her lover in the living room when Ward unexpectedly woke up from his sleep and walked downstairs. He saw the man, 32-year-old Walter Conley, on top of his wife, grabbed his gun, and confronted Conley.

When Ward confronted the man, he hid behind Lynn. Ward aimed his gun at his lower body and fired. He said that he hoped to get his “heart or lungs” and “wanted to inflict pain.” He shot a second time, saying he pointed at his nose and ear. He fired a third time, this shot aimed at his head.

The Vietnam vet said he killed over 150 enemy soldiers during his time in the war.

After firing three shots, Ward called 911, telling the operator, “Some guy was fornicating with my wife. I went back and got my gun and shot him.”

Lynn did not have the courage to admit the affair to her husband, even after the mitigating circumstances. Instead, Ward learned the man he shot was not a rapist or a pervert, but instead the man she was sleeping with regularly when police played the tape of her interrogation.

Lynn had an excuse for the forfeiture of telling her husband. Describing herself as bipolar and a “blackout drinker, Lynn stated, “I am bipolar and have alcohol dependencies. I really can't make proper decisions during the time I’m drinking and not on my meds.” She went on to say that while she attempted to end the relationship with Conley, she could not put an end to the relationship.

Ward thought his wife did not want to have sex with him because she had been abused as a child. He told police that he had never had sex with his wife. So, since he assumed his wife hated sex, he thought she was in danger and that he was protecting her.

Although Ward said he felt bad about killing the man, he also said "The man should not have been in my house at midnight having sex with my wife. I don't care what you say about that. He should not have been there."
