In a recent Enrichment Report, I had linked to an article about an American pastor murdered in Angola while there with his family to be missionaries. At that time, there was nothing in the article to suggest that the pastor's death had been anything but a simple murder in a remote area of a country known to have a high rate of violent crime. But it turns out that there was a lot more going on.
In its article, "Shocking reason Minnesota pastor's wife 'had him murdered by two hit men' during Angola mission," the Daily Mail reports:
A pastor's wife had him murdered because she was having an affair with the couple's security guard in Angola, according to police.
Jackie Shroyer, 44, is accused of being the mastermind of her husband Beau Shroyer's murder in the African nation, where the missionary couple had moved with their five children in 2019.
Beau, 44, was killed on October 25 after he was lured into a remote area, his hometown church in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota, announced last week.
Police say Jackie, who was arrested days after the murder, paid three men the equivalent of $50,000 to kill her husband. Two have been arrested, while a third remains on the loose.
Jackie was having an affair with one of the hit men, Bernadino Elias, 24, who worked at the family's home as a security guard, according to officials.
She had apparently been having misgivings about leaving Angola when their mission ended, as reported by KVRR.
Elias and alleged accomplice Isalino Kayoo, 23, were arrested, and a third suspect, Gelson Ramos, 22, remains on the run.
All of the men have criminal histories that include armed robbery and kidnapping, according to Angola's Criminal Investigation Service.
She should be forced to stay there.
