E-mails From Former 'Survivor' Producer Bruce Beresford-Redman Suggest Marriage of Lies
Monica Beresford-Redman's family begs friend to stop leaking e-mails.
April 23, 2010— -- The recently revealed e-mails between former "Survivor" producer Bruce Beresford-Redman and his now-slain wife suggest not only his affair but a marriage mired in lies and frustration.
"He often lied and saying that he never had the mistress," said Ely Burgos, mother of Monica Beresford-Redman, whose body was found this month in a Mexican hotel sewer.
It was a private argument between husband and wife that has now become very public. Bruce Beresford-Redman is considered the only suspect in his wife's death. Mexican authorities have yet to charge anyone but have ordered the Hollywood producer to remain in the country.
The e-mails, obtained by RadarOnline, were discovered on Monica Beresford-Redman's home computer. Her family brought them down to Mexico to give to authorities as evidence of a possible motive.

"She has gone even further than I thought she would," Bruce Beresford-Redman wrote to his alleged mistress, Joy Pierce. "She has denied me access to my children. ... She has shut me out of my home, she has liquidated all my money and ... she has alleged at my daughters school that I am abusive and unfit."
They were reportedly sold to RadarOnline by a family friend, a move that upset her family.
"The Burgos family did not sell or authorize the release of any e-mails to the media," family lawyer Alison Triessel said in a statement.
"Given their sensitive nature, we asked the authorities that they be preserved and kept confidential, as we believe they are relevant to this ongoing investigation," she said. "We plead with the person who has obtained them to stop leaking information to the media that may be critical to the pursuit of justice for Monica Burgos."
