When one sits back and ponders over a simple fact: am I worth more dead than alive, then the cogs upstairs can rotate in strange directions.
John Darwin and his wife, Anne, made the decision that he was worth considerably more, £250, 000 of life insurance more so in 2002 out he supposedly went in a canoe from the beach at Seaton Carew and was never seen again.
That was the plan - two sons devastated by the news, "It crushed my world", a wide and lengthy sea search without success, a teary eyed wife shocked by the 'reality' of her husband's demise.
A life as John Jones began in Cumbria but unable to live apart, Darwin moved back to Seaton Carew living in a bedsit next to his former home and hidden by a secret door. Here they devised ways to sell off their assets and move away with the monies claimed, and move away they did to Panama to start afresh.
It was here that something happened, maybe a pang of self-doubt, remorse or a perhaps a moment of clarity but a return journey was made and John Darwin / John Jones handed himself in to British Police and the truth started to leak out like a rapidly deflating balloon.
