The parents of backgammon pro Rod Covlin, on trial for murdering his millionaire financier wife Shele Danishefsky, accused him of stealing from his children, a jury heard in a secret recording Covlin's then-girlfriend had made.

Prosecutors in the nine-week-long Manhattan Supreme Court case have released the explosive tape as the case wraps up this week.

Danishefky's body was found in the bathtub of her Upper West Side home on December 31, 2009. 

Covlin is accused of strangling Danishefsky, 47, and staging the scene to look as though she slipped in the tub, struck her head and drowned in the bathwater.

Prosecutors at Manhattan Supreme Court claim Covlin, now 45, murdered Shele to get hold of her $5.4 million fortune and also took money away from their children.

Following Danishefsky's death, Covlin and children Anna and Myles moved into the home of his parents David and  Carol in Scarsdale, New York.

David is heard accusing his son of stealing from Anna and Myles and being 'a deadbeat'.

Covlin is heard warning his parents if they continue to claim he stole money he will make sure they never see their grandchildren.

At that point, Carol tells Covlin they are evicting him and give him three days, until October 1, to leave.

David also reveals spending a million dollars to allow Covlin custody of his children. 

David: 'You steal from your children. You stole before.'

Carol: 'You're stealing their college money.'

David: 'They won't be able to go to college by the time you're done with them.'

David: 'Why don't
