@crmnallyobsessed: The jury has begun deliberations in the murder trial for Brendan Banfield. Prosecutors allege Banfield plotted with the family’s live-in au pair to kill his wife, Christine Banfield, along with another man, Joe Ryan, in February 2023. Banfield denied any such plan despite admitting to an affair with the au pair, Juliana Peres Magalhães, during his testimony. Prosecutor Jenna Sands told jurors during closing arguments on Friday that evidence is clear Banfield plotted and carried out the murder of both his wife and Joseph Ryan, the unsuspecting man Banfield and Magalhães lured to the Banfields' home thinking he was coming to meet a woman for fantasy roleplay sex.
