Adultery, Off Duty BiB given a hiding, Mexican Stand-off

[Tannedbaldhead]

Firstly, I'm not married so this definitely isn't about me, Secondly this might all be hypothetical.

Say you were married and discovered your wife was having an affair with a serving BiB, you are hurt and intend to leave her. She, however, begs to you stay stating that BiB will not leave his wife and has begged your wife not to ruin his marriage. Result, at this point, your life ruined and BiB off scot free.

In anger you threaten to tell BIB's wife. BiB pulls the "job" card. (ie me and my colleagues will sort u out if you mess one of us up). Your response is to take day off, text BiB on wife's phone to come see her at the house, jump him when he gets there and beat the st out of him.

BiB is recovering from injuries while off work with "stress". You have heard nothing and have not been tugged so are assuming BiB isn't complaining as he doesn't want his wife to find out. Plod thumped, wronged hubby can't complain as a serious assault charge may result.

Over and done with?
Also, from a legal perspective, is thumping an off duty BiB any different form thumping anyone else?

I have a feeling matey boy has blown it. Should have complained to BiB's management and told his wife. This would have done a stload more damage. I also have a feeling that regardless of whether or not the recipient of the kicking deserved it or not long term if it's a BiB there will be consequences eventually.

that won't go very far as it's very,very common in the Police.

. Is it any worse than other similar-sized work environments? .

Can't be worse than construction where the lads work on contracts away from home on a regular basis.

Replacing roles here, I was once in the position where the one party who didn't know what was going on was Bib's wife. Attempts were made to persuade me to keep quiet but I thought there was more chance of saving my marriage if all the parties knew the score, and it would at least make it much more difficult for my rival to carry on the affair, with his wife wise to his antics. In the end, both marriages failed but I gained some satisfaction from the ststorm that followed me forcing my rival to come clean to his wife.

In hindsight it was doomed from the moment I found out, but I never had any interest in thumping anyone. Waste of time and energy and it would have exposed me to risk. Far better to fk with his life completely legally. It's easy to say your wife is to blame, but it's not so easy to take that on board when your rival has gone out of their way to help end your marriage. Play with fire and all that.

OP - tell him he's welcome to her and that you hope he tastes a bit of you every now and then when he's down on her. Or anything else about her sexual preferences. He'll never fully get it out of his mind.

I have to agree with everything you've said here. I think the hubby in question has let his rival off lightly. He did have the power to damage his career and wreck his marriage. He lost that power when he gave in to his base instincts. From what he told me the marriage is over but inspite of what his wife did to him he was angry at the way BiB treated her once he realised his own marriage was in jeopardy. I think he also took umbrage at the BiB playing the you can't mess with me I'm a policeman card. All he has is the satisfaction of being one of the few people who has stiffened a copper and walked off scot free. It was hardly worth it as his marriage is over and I have a feeling that that's the sort of thing that in the long term you don't get away with.
