The cheating wife accused of luring her husband to

The cheating wife accused of luring her husband to his
death told a friend before the murder that she was bored by
his kindness, the Old Bailey heard today (thurs).

Sandra Wignall, 48, continued to date her illicit lover
Terry Bewley because she craved excitement, it was alleged.

Barmaid Janet Wise said Mrs Wignall confessed to her
about her obsession with Bewley.

And she told the jury that
Mrs Wignall carried on seeing him after she married decorator
Bob Wignall, 55, on Christmas Eve, 1991.

Mrs Wise said: ‘She said she was bored.

I asked her if
Terry knew she was married and had she heard from him and she
said she was still seeing him.

‘
She added: ‘She said that Bob was kind and always asking
her would she like some tea and put your feet up and have a
rest.

‘He didn’t particularly like her working.

He did everything
he could to make her happy and it bored her.

‘
Mrs Wise served behind the bar of the Rose and Olive Branch
pub in Virginia Water where Mrs Wignall worked as a cleaner and
kitchen hand.

Mrs Wise added: ‘She said Terry had phoned a couple of
times and Bob had been in another room and she had to pretend
it was somebody else.

‘She still loved Terry.

I probably said something like:
”well, I know you do like excitement, but remember how miserable
you were and the lonely weekends on your own until you met someone
nice.

”
Mrs Wignall, of Rowhurst Avenue, Addlestone, Surrey and
Bewley, 42, a chauffeur, of Trevor Crescent, Ruislip, Middx.

,
deny murdering Mr Wignall in September last year.

Bewley allegedly knifed him to death with a second man,
Harold Moult, 43, of Clissold Street, Ladywood, Birmingham,
after Mrs Wignall lured him to woods near their home.

Mrs Wise told the jury that Mrs Wignall told her how she met
Bewley before her marriage and was obsessed with him.

She said: ‘Her whole life revolved around her and him.

‘
She said that Bewley never told Mrs Wignall where he lived and
would disappear for weeks on end.

Mrs Wise said: ‘One day I phoned every Bewley in the phone
book because she didn’t know where he lived.

‘
She added: ‘It was on and off the whole time.

At one point
she counted the hours she must have seen him in one year and I
think it came to 24.

‘
The court heard that after the murder, Mrs Wignall concocted
a story about her husband being set upon by youths as they fed
foxes in the Sayes woods near their home.

Mrs Wise said she went round to console her after the murder.

She added: ‘She was talking about it.

She said she ran away.

She
said she went back to the body and tried to move him.

‘She said that if she hadn’t run away perhaps he would still
be alive.

I said she had done the best thing.

‘
Mrs Wise said that Mrs Wignall told her after her wedding that
she loved her husband even though he bored her.

She added: ‘She came into the pub and I asked if she was still
seeing Terry.

She said he had gone abroad for two years and they had
decided to finish it.

‘I said it was for the best.

She said she loved Bob and wanted
to make a go of it.

She said he had a weak heart and if anything
happened to him she wouldn’t know what to do.

‘
The prosecution claims that Mr Wignall was murdered so that his
cheating wife could claim pnds stlng 21,000 insurance money.

The jury
has heard that the alleged motive was ‘lust and greed.

‘
All three defendants deny murder and the trial continues.
