Did Edward's Second Wife Know That He Was The Claremont Serial Killer? ​

Edward's second wife might not have known that he was the Claremont serial killer but she was suspicious about his behaviour.

In 2014—the year before she left him—Edward's second wife started taking notes on his bank statements because she was "sick and tired" of his lies.

She recalled rifling through his bank transactions after failing to find a statement covering the period of the final victim's murder.

When asked why she started taking notes on his bank transactions, Edward's ex-wife said their relationship "started to escalate" and that she "feared for her life", but was prevented from elaborating on the reason she was scared.
