The matriarch got divorced when Terri was a teen. She relished the single life by hitting the tennis court and dressing up. Mother and daughter later teamed up to launch a consigning business with a $2,000 loan from Terri’s grandmother. Terri's Consign & Design Furnishings was born, and it quickly transformed into a multimillion-dollar chain.
," Terri recalled."They dated, the whole bit. And he was pulling out all these inventions. He always had these grandiose ideas of making money. He had a certain type of chair for businesspeople, he had a lawnmower blade that would cut sideways — he had all sorts of ideas. And me being an entrepreneur — and a Virgo — I just jumped right in. Within four days, he asked to rent the room."The mystery man who insisted he was robbed of his wallet at the airport settled right at home.
Piles of boxes hidden in the garage contained stuffed-away utility bills, mortgage bills, late notices and foreclosure warnings — all addressed to Bowersock. Eight credit cards were also discovered. Bowersock’s purse, including her ID and checkbook, was still at her home.Benderly’s car also had a pickaxe and a shovel. They appeared to be recently used. Cellphone records indicated that Benderly was in the desert for two hours.
Police later uncovered that Benderly was released from prison around the time he met Bowersock. He wasn’t Scottish and Bowersock was not the first woman he’d seduced and defrauded. They also learned he embezzled thousands of dollars on the credit cards issued in her name. In addition, he had been stealing the mortgage payments for months.
