Husband’s chilling Facebook confession after he caught wife cheating
A North Carolina husband confessed on social media to killing his wife and planning to kill himself after catching his wife cheating.
George Lesniak, 63, was the sole administrator of the ADAS support group on Facebook – dedicated to professionals who work in a vehicle’s Advanced Driver Assistance System to monitor the vehicle’s surroundings and respond accordingly. The Express reports this.
It was in that group that he admitted to killing his wife, Cathleen Lesniak, 59, on Saturday evening.
‘My wife admitted she was cheating on me, so I killed her. I’m about to kill myself,” he wrote in a now-deleted message around 6 p.m.: according to the NC beat.
‘Find this group out for yourself.’
Within three minutes of the post going live, Fuquay-Varina police were dispatched to Lesniak’s home in response to reports of a shooting.
