“It’s time for the truth to come out,” husband of alleged fraudster breaks his silence
- Replies 2
After being silent throughout the 11 months since his wife disappeared, the husband of alleged fraudster Melissa Caddick unveils the secrets of her death and life.
“I can’t keep silent any longer.”
Anthony Koletti recounts their life together as husband and wife before she vanished in November last year, and claims her story is one of death and deceit.

Over a number of years, the woman has been allegedly scamming 60 clients of at least $23 million, most of which came from family and friends. Only $7 million was ever repaid, and the rest of the money vanished.
Caddick was last seen alive in November 2020 following raids on her $6.8 million home by the federal police.
When her foot was later found by campers at Bournda Beach on February 21, she was presumed dead by the NSW police.
The shoe located on the remote beach was a unique Asics sneaker - which Caddick had previously been seen wearing - and was used to confirm that the body part was indeed hers.
Though the rest of her body is yet to be located, she was already given a private farewell service in April.
Even though police have repeatedly pointed out that his wife most likely took her own life, Koletti claimed someone killed his wife.
“Someone got greedy and wanted her dead,” says the widower.
In an interview with 7News Spotlight, he said it was beyond him to believe that her foot would just miraculously wash up on a beach on the NSW south coast.

Though his brother, Chris Koletti, may disagree. He believes that the conwoman likely staged a disappearance and didn’t tell her husband because Anthony “couldn’t keep a secret”.
“She'll come back, she can't run forever, she'll come back when she's run out of money, or when she wants to see her son,” the brother told Daily Telegraph.
“She doesn't want anything to do with us, Anthony made the choice to go into that life, he doesn't want to deal with us, that's fine, he stopped talking to us… she's stuck up, she had a life she wanted to lead… good luck to them,” he said.
