Jackie Shroyer, the wife of a U.S. missionary who was k!lled in Africa, is @ccused of having an affair with one of the family’s security guards and hiring him to help k!ll her husband, Beau Shroyer.
Jackie, 44, reportedly promised her younger boyfriend, 24-year-old Bernadino Elias, and two other men $50,000 to carry out the murd3r.
The Shroyers had been living in Angola with their five children for the last three years.
Elias worked as a guard at their home, and he was later arr3sted along with 23-year-old Isalino “Vin Diesel” Kayoo.
A third suspect, Gelson Ramos, is still wanted by police.
All three men have previous cr!m!nal records, including charges for armed r0bbery and k!dnapping.
Police say the suspects tricked Beau into going to a secluded area by claiming their rental car had broken down, where they then stabbed him to d3ath on October 25.
Jackie reportedly did not want to leave Angola after her husband’s mission work was over. Beau was the former lead pastor of Lakes Area Vineyard Church.

Detectives found a kn!fe at the murd3r scene that Beau had given to Elias as a gift, and about $5,000 was also discovered there.
When police arrived, Jackie pretended to be upset about her husband’s d3ath. She, along with the two Angolan susp3cts, is now in ja!l.
The American Embassy is involved and is in contact with the family, while the Lakes Area Vineyard Church’s current pastor expressed the congregation’s shock and sadness over the tragedy.
The couple’s five children are being looked after, and the organization SIM, which the Shroyers worked for, is collaborating with the church to support the family.
Prior to becoming a missionary, Beau worked as a police officer and a real estate agent.
