MURDER PLOT: Victoria Cilliers
According to an article written by Caralynn Lippo in April 2017 for Redbook magazine, traditional wedding vows can be traced as far back as the Book of Common Prayer written by the Archbishop of Cantebury Thomas Cranmer in 1549. The vows have been adapted significantly over the years, specifically the vow we now know as “til death do us part.” In the original version of the book, this vow was known as “till death us depart” before it was changed in 1662 to “till death us do part.” It was modified some time after to what we now know it as, “till death do us part” and has remained a stable part of wedding vows ever since. “Till death do us part” is an ominous vow to make, with 100s of thousands of divorces taking place each year. In Catholicism, “till death do us part” is taken literally, meaning that only God himself can interfere with a marriage and that the only manner in which a couple’s marriage will end, is if one of them dies. Emile Cilliers also took the vow extremely literally and couldn’t wait for God’s interference to end his marriage, thus, an extravagant murder plot was born.
