The lonely Roblox widow who claimed an icy-eyed gigolo scammed her out of $6 million dropped a jaw-dropping detail during a confrontation in her lawyer’s office — revealing her father-in-law was an infamous wife-murderer, according to a transcript of the meeting.
She also claims the in-law threatened to kill her, too.
Marianne Flippo, 49 — who accuses silver-haired Greggory Starr of milking her out of millions following the suicide of her wealthy Roblox programmer husband — made the wild disclosure while arguing with her attorney, audio transcripts filed in Manhattan Supreme Court reveal.
“My deceased husband, his father, who’s a pastor of a church… he was a murderer,” Flippo told her attorney, Larry Hutcher, according to the transcript.
Turns out her father-in-law was James Michael Flippo, an infamous West Virginia pastor who brutally bludgeoned to death his wife, Cheryl, in a remote state-park cabin back in 1996.
The bombshell relation came out during a July 7 confrontation between Flippo, Starr and Hutcher, the transcript claims.
Flippo shot back that she wasn’t afraid of Starr — a West Point and law school grad — because she had survived sleeping under the same roof as a real killer.
“I slept in the same house with him,” Flippo said, according to the court-filed transcript. “He’d already murdered his wife. I had to sleep under the same roof with him and he had already threatened to murder me… I’m not afraid.”
