Friend's Husband Cleaned Out Bank Account and Left... Curious

So my friend just texted me and let me know that her husband has cleared out their savings account and left to go to a family weekend event with their children... He then told her to be home when he was back. The reason? He stated it was because she wouldn't go with him to this event. She calmly told him she was tired (she works full time, is working on her masters and has 2 kids.) Now, why would he blow up over something so small? Let's back up.

She mentioned that he has been acting weird for over a month. Has accused her of cheating in front of one of her co-worker, and they have been fighting off and on. My friends and I both think something isn't right. She mentioned mental illness. I mentioned the insecurities may mean he is cheating on her and deflecting. Any thoughts? This guy does have a temper but usually can reign it in.

Edit: (posting this from my iphone, sorry) I meant to say, he said he did NOT want her to be home when he got back. To pack her stuff up.

That's what I thought! He works in the oilfield and is gone a lot. Another girl I know, her husband starting acting weird and sure enough he calls and tells her he is seeing someone else. What a mess.

Cheating and cleaned out the bank account.

If the house is shared, she should change the locks before he gets back and find an attorney ASAP regarding the money he cleaned out, because half of it's hers.

Yes hold everything hostage, even work clothes and his Mom's photograph - with all that cash he can buy more. Let it get sorted out in divorce court. He'll break in of course so a new shotgun might be in order.

He's been trying to convince her she's to blame for a month or so now. Meanwhile with her new degree she can leave him far behind both emotionally and financially (hopefully).

Yep, he is fucking around. She needs to change the locks while he and his spawn are on vacation and file for divorce while he is gone.

She can't delay. She must do it now. Even if the house is his if she takes possession he must go through the legal eviction process and if he breaks in he is trespassing.

She has to understand this. How could she have any question about what is going on?

Hmmm, the accusing her of cheating is the big, red flag giveaway. My bastard exbf was always accusing me of cheating - if I stayed overnight at a gf's for a girlie night or had to stay overnight because of working away. Turns out he has been cheating on me with his 'other' gf since May 2013. We both found out about each other last Tuesday and both dumped his cheating, lying arse - still a bit raw....
