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

[Skully67]

BW isn't, you can hear he has dry mouth at times, he swallows hard at times, any mention of the murders and he goes off on another let me tell you something ramble about drug dealers who lived on this road but I know nothing, CRsr never spoke more than 3 words a day, but those 3 words seemed to reveal everything about the local dealers, BW was so nervous he was hysterical at times,

and he just could not stop talking because if he did the agents would mention the murders and off he went again, I doubt I have heard anybody as nervous talking to LE in all my years trial watching

Right now, we don't have a baseline for how BW normally talks. This could be the way he always is. I have a friend like that.

DBM edited wrong.

I missed something yesterday, or forgot from the original time of the incident. T testified to this? If so, then no, it couldn't have been at the visitation. Xanax is an awful drug and is excreted in breast milk. Possible that T was breastfeeding? Didn't realize? (Remembering back to her son, and she'd wanted to breastfeed or had been advised to by lactation counselor)

She may have been drugged herself (put in her tea or whatever) and then passed it to the baby. She passed the later drug test.

He broke his phone..because he kept wanting to call Chris...wow...I guess a new phone would wipe his memory of his "friend". From that point on I knew the rest was going to be BS.

Anyone have a list of the names he threw out?
keep in mind, Billy ain’t no snitch.

PCSO, black kids from chili, every dope dealer from latham to greenfield, and half of pike county west of 23. At least he didnt throw the Manley's under the bus.

 

[Pru2U]

that was extraordinary, BW went from not even knowing CRsr grew weed to mentioning every dope dealer or grower in about 10 counties

Enough rope.

The Seal 6 comment would have made the Agents suspicions that he was involved more certain, because it was a clinical operation after the CRsr and GR murders, and by saying that the Agents would have known that only if you had been at the crime scenes were you to know that it looked like a professional hit,

because amongst his word salad were kernels of truth leaking out and the seal 6 comment was a massive leak of information that he probably didn't realize had happened

well I will take your word on this. I don't think I have ever listened to a police interview before. And this was so difficult with the accent being so strong and the speed of his talking.

 

[Chelly]

Link to stream I've been watching. Had text captioning to read as well as audio. Helped understand what was being said.

With the air conditioner on full blast because BW was blowing so much hot air!

 

[ohioexpat63]

He isn't privy to GW4 court proceedings. So do you think his attorney will convince hihim.

I think after this trial his attorney's will try. Do you think his attorney's will keep him apprised of the proceedings? I do, but who knows.

 

[Ann99]

Enough rope.

Can not wait for VW to testify.

his defense team will have everything GW team has, so BW already knows what evidence the state has including this car crash interview

 

[sunshineray]

He ain't no (expletive) snitch!!

Ya sure? I heard a lot of names!

Right!!? He was just rattling and snitching about everybody and his brother...except one.

I wonder how this will play at the jailhouse?

 

[sunshineray]

Can not wait for VW to testify.

Is he on the witness list!?

 

[dgfred]

It did not seem 'professional' to me. for instance all the missed rifle shots and no hit man is killing a woman with 5 shots to the head. From the first moment it was likely personal. Much rage in all the killings.
Just ask Tony Montana to kill someone around kids. Yikes

"this place is a #@&*hole and nobody gives a %$#@." Well that statement is true from what I have seen throughout this case. The residents, particularly the children, do not stand a chance of succeeding in this world outside of their insular community. They will survive on governmental benefits, minimum amount of schooling, the "love" of their parents and families, but they will not thrive.

There are very few government benefits in Ohio. Only if you are elderly, disabled or are below the very low poverty level and have minor children. The benefits are paltry, not enough to "thrive" on. Medicaid only if you are extremely poor and have minor children. Government benefits (mostly paid with federal money), are difficult to get and, if you eventually qualify, are difficult to keep. Even for disabled persons, the state makes you go out on job interviews every week, then provide the info (often in office visits) every month. Try making someone who is terminally ill do that. Their web sites are deliberately confusing or inoperable for people trying to apply. Make one mistake and your benefits end immediately. It takes months to get back on.

There used to be some good jobs in this area, but many of them were shipped overseas during the 2000's.

Like quite a few states, Ohio does not take care of its people.

 

[joe jones]

Did CRSr. and BW really know each for 18 years as BW said in the played interview?

I though BW said 8-10 years, and I do think they knew each other well, and they were in the drug business together

 

[Chelly]

No, are you volunteering to listen again and transcribe? lol j/k

I would rather have my teeth pulled with no drugs than to listen to that again!

Let us hope Billy will be way less talkative and calmer in future interviews.
