Teresa Gaethe-Leonard had a hard time telling the truth right out the gate, even about the basics like her name and date of birth. The complicated web of lies she would weave over decades, coupled with her jealous and vindictive nature would lead to multiple devious acts. Lies, manipulation, and illicit affairs played no small role in the eventual downfall of her marriage. When she turned to a violent act to try to solve her problems the roller coaster of the story is really only just beginning. This case quickly spiraled into a two-parter. Passports and seat belts are 100% required for this ride.
