Robert’s wife Lindsay was arrested on July 26 after she allegedly hired a murderer to take out her husband. Police in the Bahamas arrested Lindsay, her lover Terrance Bethek, and another man named Faron Newbold.
Police uncovered the murder plot while investigating another case. Law enforcement said they found text messages between the suspects on the phone of a burglar suspect.
Robert spoke out after Lindsay’s arrest. He told The Post, he has not informed their children about their mother’s actions.
“My kids don’t know the whole thing yet. I’m going to try to tell them in the next day or so,” he said. “They’re young.”
Lindsay has been released on $100k bail and told the outlet it’s been “really tough” for her.
“I really can’t say too much right now,” she said. “It’s been hard. But I can’t speak about it.”
Lindsay has been ordered to remain in the Bahamas until her October court date. The court instructed her not to contact Robert or come within 100 feet of him.
