Brendan Banfield faces life for wife’s murder
Brendan Banfield, a Virginia man, was convicted of murdering his wife, Christine Banfield, and a stranger, Joseph Ryan, in an elaborate plot involving his au pair. Prosecutors claim Banfield and the au pair, Juliana Peres Magalhães, created fake online accounts to lure Ryan into the home and frame him for the murders. Banfield testified he acted in self-defense after finding Ryan attacking his wife, but evidence and witness testimony supported the conviction. He faces a life sentence, with the sentencing scheduled for Friday.
