New York infidelity expert Ruth Houston appeared on Good Day Colorado earlier this week to comment on some of the infidelity aspects of the Shawna Nelson case.

Shawna Nelson was found guilty of the execution style murder of Heather Garrus, the wife of Nelson?s ex-lover Ignacio Garraus.

Houston, the founder of www.InfidelityAdvice.com is frequently called on by the media to comment on celebrity infidelity, high profile infidelity court cases, and infidelity issues in the news.

A nationally-recognized infidelity expert and author of Is He Cheating on You? ? 829 Telltale Signs, Houston calls the Shawna Nelson case a ?worst case scenario? of what can happen when a wife doesn?t recognize the signs of infidelity and ends up being the last to know.?

A Love Triangle that Had Reached the Point of No Return

Elaborating on her comments on Good Day Colorado, Houston says, ?As I understand it, Shawna Nelson and Ignacio Garrus had a 3-year affair which produced a child, and continued until Ignacio finally confessed to his wife, Heather, less than a month before she was killed. Heather agreed to with Ignacio if he would end his affair with Shawna (which he did by phone in Heather?s presence) and agree to seek counseling, so they were headed in the right direction. But in Shawna?s mind, her affair with Ignacio had already reached the point of no return. ?

Says Houston, ?There?s no doubt in my mind that situation would have played out very differently if Heather had recognized the signs of the affair when it was in its early stages ? before Shawna Nelson formed an obsessive attachment to Heather?s husband, Ignacio -- before Shawna became pregnant and gave birth to Ignacio?s son.?

Heather Garraus Was the Last to Know

?This is not a statement against Heather Garraus,? continues Houston, ?Heather was an innocent victim who apparently had no idea what was going on. And she is by no means alone in this respect. According to statistics, 50% to 70% of men cheat on their wives. Approximately 2/3 of the women being cheated on (38 to 53 million women) have no idea their husbands are having an affair ? mainly because they fail to recognize the telltale signs of infidelity. Unfortunately Heather Garraus was one of those unsuspecting wives. And apparently, she was the last to know?

Learn to Spot the Signs of Infidelity

Houston explains, ?That?s why it?s so important for men and women to learn to become familiar with the signs of infidelity. Everyone tends to focus on the obvious signs of infidelity ? the so-called top 10 signs ? but these are the signs the cheater will attempt to cover up. Meanwhile they overlook the dozens upon dozens of subtle signs of infidelity that are staring them in the face. But knowing what to look for is the key. The Shawna Nelson case is a classic example of why you don?t want to be the last to know. By the time you find out, it may already be too late. The affair may have already reached the point of no return.?

Houston?s book, Is He Cheating on You? ? 829 Telltale Signs, documents practically every known sign of infidelity, including the subtle signs people usually overlook. Despite the title, most of the signs in the book apply to cheating women as well as cheating men. The signs are conveniently grouped into 21 major categories so a person can easily find the signs that apply to their mate.

How Heather?s Life Might Have Been Spared

?People who know about an affair have a responsibility to tell the infidelity victim what?s going on, ? says Houston. ?But many people take the attitude that it?s not their business and they don?t want to get involved. If you know about an affair and say nothing to the infidelity victim about what?s going on, you?re aiding and abetting the cheater by helping him cover up the affair. If you tell the unsuspecting infidelity victim what?s going on, he or she can take action before too much damage is done."

"The affair between Shawna Nelson and Ignacio Garraus supposedly went on for nearly 3 years. They claimed to have met each other in public places, so others in the community had to have known what was going on. Did anyone think to tell Ken Nelson his wife was having an affair? Did anyone bother to tell Heather Garraus what was going on?. Did they think by keeping quiet they were sparing Heather?s feelings? Quite the contrary. By speaking up, they might have spared Heather Garraus?s life.?
