For years she was a perfect wife. Then he learned of her arrest in a deadly dating app scheme

William Phelps was at work when he got the call from the FBI that he had to return home at once. It was December 2023 and his wife, Aurora Phelps, was in big trouble, something to do with a fraud scheme. About a dozen agents turned his apartment upside down looking for evidence in their case, and William Phelps wouldn't see his wife again. That is, until this week, when William came to learn the scope of the allegations against his wife. According to federal prosecutors, Aurora was the perpetrator of a deadly romance scam, connecting with older men on the internet, then drugging them and stealing from their bank accounts.
