My Biggest Shock as a Private Investigator

A while back I received a call from one of the attorneys we do business with letting me know he was referring me to another client. The client would be calling me shortly. The client did call and retained me to handle his case. The client and his wife had a little girl and our client felt his wife was engaging in sexual activity in front of the child. They were having family over for Thanksgiving and he felt she would find a way to get out of the house since we learned the man she was believed to be having an affair with was flying into town on Thanksgiving Day. 

I found out the name and address of her alleged lover and discovered that he had reservations at a local hotel.  

Around 12:15 pm, investigators saw a male matching the target’s description exit a cab and walk inside the motel with a shoulder bag. One investigator exited her car and followed him on foot to ascertain the floor and room number for surveillance to begin. The target left his bags and left the room. We waited outside for the subject to show up. Investigators observed the subject getting out of her car. This next part is hard to believe. We also observed was our client’s 6 year old child in the back seat being taken out by her mother’s lover and carried up to the hotel. Unbelievably, these two left the curtains open and were easily viewed from outside the room having intercourse in front of the child!  Fearing for the child’s safety, we notified our client to let him know we had called the police. The client arrived around the same time as law enforcement. They removed the small child from the room and handed her to our client. Our client was very pleased as he was given sole custody of his little girl. The attorney called to tell me the mother never even showed up for court.
