Virginia husband testifies he shot the man, not his wife, in au pair affair case
In a Fairfax County murder trial, Brendan Banfield testified that he shot Joseph Ryan during the killings of his wife Christine Banfield, saying he did not want to shoot Ryan; prosecutors contend Banfield stabbed Christine and staged the scene, while the au pair Juliana Magalhães testified about a secret affair and social-media catfishing. The defense questioned investigators and highlighted inconsistencies as the case against Banfield continues.
