#100 – Tracy Nessl *

Well, this one certainly has it all – money, exotic locales, beautiful people, a big trial … and a little incest to boot.

Tim McNamara was 66. Tracy Nessl was 44. They met at a wedding. Oh, Tim also just happened to be Tracy’s uncle.

Months into their relationship, a besotted Tim gave Traci millions in property & insurance money. They then moved to Belize – to get away from their disapproving relatives, start a B&B, and get hitched.

On Christmas Day 2014, however, everything came to a grinding halt. Tracy claims she heard a bang, then found Tim outside laying on his side, dying.

She claimed it was suicide, but the Belizean authorities weren’t so sure. In particular, they found:

  • The wound was on the top rear part of his head, an unusual – and difficult – place to shoot oneself.
  • The gun was Tracy’s.
  • She didn’t report the incident for 3 whole hours.
  • The shooting happened just days before Tim’s life insurance was set to expire.
  • After being interviewed but before being charged, Tracy fled to the US.

She would never be extradited. She would, though, lose a civil suit to Tim’s children, for a cool $3.3M.

Just to add to the fun, Tracy claimed that she had sex with one of Tim’s sons soon after the shooting (he denied it). There were also rumors of an affair between Nessl and her attorney.

All in all, some pretty bizarre stuff. You need to go online for some of the interviews she did, to get a real feel for how out there she truly is.
