Snippet from a report in the New York Post
An NYPD shrink — whose job is to screen new recruits — put a bullet in her husband’s head as he slept so she could start a new life with her married lover, the wounded spouse claims in a lawsuit.
Real estate developer Kenneth Dearden Jr. accused his wife, Emily, of shooting him execution-style with an antique derringer because she “had been having an on-and-off extramarital affair since at least early 2011.”
Her lover, a Texas man named Warren Roudebush, ended his own marriage shortly before the November 2013 shooting and was pressuring Emily to do the same “so that they could be together,” according to the court papers filed last week in White Plains.
“With [Kenneth] no longer in the picture, [Emily] could avoid a contentious divorce, keep the marital home and never admit the marriage infidelity to any family and friends,” the suit says.
No one has been charged in the shooting inside the sprawling, Spanish colonial-style home that Kenneth and Emily share with their two young daughters in a posh section of Yonkers.
Yonkers police Lt. Patrick McCormack called it a “complex case” and declined to comment on Kenneth’s allegations.
The bullet that struck Kenneth entered at the back of his neck, near the base of his skull, passed underneath his ear canal and lodged in his left cheek.
He survided the shooting following surgeries to remove the bullet and to repair a severed artery to his brain.
