I think you're right. Also explains the happy looks Nash has had, just saw Parker come back to the table, Nash looked pleased.

Have to say thanks to everyone posting the twitter info, I don't have a twitter account so I'm limited until someone puts it up.

...and now I'm called away, will rely on all you great posters when I return.

I signed up for Twitter for this trial! I'm off too, to the dentist!

Maybe he got the Judge to tell jurors to consider it "other acts" evidence. It all sounds like Tackett was a first hand witness to most of it, though.

Imo the trip to Mexico was a lie that BE told.

Typo - BW

 

[Niner]

Looks Evan is reporting on the Gurpreet Singh murder trial. He has the same stuff on Wagner trial which was already posted by iulia - by the other tweeter.

During cross - Tackett admitted to being an informant for BCI and wearing a wire to the Wagners' house on Peterson road at least 4 times.

But also says Tackett said Billy said he ordered brass catchers on the same day he saw the guns in his room. Tackett also says Billy and Angela had a troubled marriage and he helped Billy move out at one point.

Also says Billy owed Chris Rhoden Sr. at least $40,000 and that he thought Chris Sr might have "had the hots" for Angela Wagner - he was over their house even when Billy wasn't there.

Tackett also says he was involved in chicken fighting with the Rhodens, and that he also smokes marijuana daily.

Well, it's all been go today so far as we've read. Shame we couldn't have listened in.
who would have thought that Billy,Jake and George set fires! More charges to come maybe? What do you all think?

 

[sunshineray]

Didn't Tackett say he was with BW?

Is BE a typo, I'm lost there.

I'm thinking it was BW saying he was in a fight in Mexico...maybe to explain his bruised face?

 

[Niner]

What happened to Chelsea Robinson? Was she not on this morning?

Tackett was the 1st witness for the day?

All I can think is Holy Smokes!!!
Amazing testimony!

Well, that's a switch - Billy owing Chris Sr. money. Sounds more likely and also a secondary motive for murder. Billy wanted to kill the Rhodens as much as Jake did. GW4 would have been highly motivated to help out both. JMO Also doubt Chris Sr would have the "hots" for AW, but she probably did for him. More secondary motives.

 

[rescuemom]

If Tackett became an informant for BCI.. could that be the 'John Doe' referenced in some document..can't remember which document?? or is there another informant(s)

 

[sunshineray]

Anybody who this next witness is?

 

[Betty P]

Not sure, perhaps a woman, last name Stanley? Some names were in that article Niner posted on previous page from Cincinnati Enquirer.

Here's the article with a review of all potential witnesses this week and in the upcoming weeks.

OH - Pike Co - 8 in Rhoden Family Murdered Over Custody Issue - 4 Members Wagner Family Arrested #74

Yes its 10 am. Try Chris Graves. Also Patricia Newberry. She's with the Cincinnati Enquirer. Looks like she is leaving... Chris Graves @chrisgraves · Oct 1 A little sad to leave Ohio as it means cleaning out the patio flower pots in Nebraska this weekend with hope planted in spring bulbs...

As far as I could tell, Chelsea R. was cross-examined by the defense by no more than 10 minutes. I do think the prosection might have redirect after than but not 100% sure.

That’s what I thought as well.

Chris could have just been trying to check up on HR when she was living there, going there when the W men weren't around?

I bet word has gotten back to BW in jail that his life-long friend was an informant and is spilling his guts. That may change things?

Samantha Staley; and she has opted in according to a tweet I read posted on here.

Tackett is a fabulous witness.

Not sure who is next but found this info:

George Wagner IV trial in Pike County massacre enters fourth week

George Wagner IV has pleaded not guilty to several charges including eight counts of aggravated murder

www.fox19.com

George Wagner IV’s ex-wife, Tabitha, is expected to testify later Monday or on Tuesday. It’s not clear yet if she will permit her testimony to be recorded.

During her opening statement, Special Prosecutor Angela Canepa said George Wagner IV and his family abused and controlled Tabitha when they were married.

Tabitha tried to flee once but, Angela Wagner threw a 2-by-4 at her — and the family kept their son, Bulvine, Canepa told jurors.

The Wagners won a custody arrangement that allowed Tabitha to only see her child “if and when the Wagners said so,” according to Canepa.

Tabitha’s mother told Hanna May in a Facebook message not to sign custody papers after what happened to Tabitha.

“I won’t sign papers ever it won’t happen they will have to kill me first,” Hanna May wrote, Canepa has told the jury.
