Ring o Ring o Roses

My understanding is that this woman took out a home improvement loan in order to get the moeny to hire a hit man to kill her husband. I suppose I can see how many wives would think that it would definitely be an improvement to get rid of the husband, so at least she was being honest with the bank. I am amazed by the husband who has forgiven her. He said he would "stand by her". Well, if he is going to stand close then I would recommend he checked her for knives first. They'd sit up late having tea and toast, did he think to check that the rat bait in the garage wasn't slowly going down.
