MAN STABS HIS WIFE AND HER LOVER TO DEATH AFTER HE FOUND THEM HAVING SEXUAL INTERCOURSE IN A PARK.


A man got the ultimate reward for sleeping with another man's wife when he was fatally stabbed to death alongside his partner by the woman's husband.

Daily News reports that  the stabbing death of a man whose naked body was found outside of a Brooklyn apartment building exposed a sordid love triangle that ended in two killings, not one — and the arrest of a suspect Thursday.

Jerome Barrett, 35, is believed to have been having sex with a co-worker in a car parked near his East New York home early Wednesday when the woman’s husband interrupted their sexual encounter, police sources said.

The husband, Steve Whittingham, 48, stabbed Barrett several times in the chest and did the same to his wife, Jonelle Barker, 36, killing them both, police said in announcing Whittingham’s arrest early Thursday night.

Barrett was mortally wounded but managed to flee, still naked and clutching his clothing, the sources said. He made his way to the entrance of an apartment building on Louisiana Ave. near Seaview Ave. in Starrett City shortly after 1 a.m. Wednesday, the sources said.

He was ringing the buzzer for various apartments, trying to summon help, when his wounds overcame him, the sources said. His clothes and wallet were found a few feet from his body, just outside the building’s entrance.

Roughly a day later, about 3:30 a.m. on Thursday, Barrett’s Kia was found parked on New Lots Ave. in Brownsville, the sources said.


Inside the trunk was Jonelle Barker’s body. She, too, was naked, the sources said.

Investigators believe that Barrett and Barker, who worked as baggage handlers at JFK Airport, were having an affair and that Whittingham killed them both in a rage after learning about her infidelity, the sources said.

Barker and Whittingham lived together in Windsor Terrace, Brooklyn, police said.

Shortly after Barker’s body was discovered, Whittingham surrendered himself to authorities, the sources said.

Jerome Barrett’s brother, Benjamin Barrett, Jr., who lives in Virginia, was stunned when he heard his sibling had been slain.

“No! ... you’re kidding, man!” he said, adding that their father had died of illness just last week. “He was just coming back down here this weekend for the funeral.”

Barrett lived about a mile and a half from the Starrett City building outside of which his body was found. It was not clear where he and Barker had parked, the sources said, because Whittingham drove the car from that scene after the killings.

Whittingham was due to be arraigned and it was not immediately clear if he had an attorney.
