Setting aside some money for the woman before the lawyers take it all is a very smart move.

Dont believe everything you hear.

... I'm now starting to feel bad for Derek.
(sigh) So close to that 20 year retirement with all the benefits, and then ... his wife kicks him in the balls.

Yep, and what the lawyers don't take, the courts will. It would be in both their best interest to settle immediately. I don't know if the courts would rule with his criminal case pending.

And she has to be convincing with her story that she is not simply trying to keep some of the money....that she is a victim and needs to be taken care of...otherwise they come for her.

With his history (the accusations of misconduct on the force), she should have no problem.
