Exhibit G is just a Dec 2022 news article (pg 29/34) from the link below:

Thanks for linking the Exhibit G.

Moving to a metropolitan area with much larger population (like Columbus) will probably make it more likely they'll find jurors who didn't read those articles/media coverage.

Sure Billy and his attorneys will fight, but the evidence is very much against him. They did this as a team: planning, execution and cover up. JMO, the outcome will be the same.

ETA: Any wagers on whether Billy will take the stand in his own defense? Recalling the recording of his interview with BCI agents in the grocery store parking lot, it may not be a good idea. It might be interesting, though. JMO

I dunno -- some of these defendants-- it's like they can't help themselves!
I see Billy walk into court where everything about his body language screams "bully" to me and I think he relishes that about himself. If he does take the stand, it will be all about control and intimidation. If he's going down, he wants to world to know his one mean *&^%$ JMO

As for the requested change in venue, I think Billy's trial could be held in Antarctica and he would still be found guilty. There is just too much evidence and too many witnesses' willing to testify against him.

If Billy does indeed go to trial I will curious as to what 'other acts' will be introduced. I'll bet Angie has a lot to say as well as Jake.

What does Billy have left? His ego? That's pretty much it. IMO.

IMO, I hope Billy takes the stand but I seriously don't think he will. The great and powerful OZ wannabe is simple-minded.... just not completely stupid. MOO. Gruff and tough but full of bluff.

To me Billy is a bully and the muscle, not the brains in that group. Down deep he is a blowhard and a coward so I would be surprised if he takes the stand. If he does it would be a circus.

Not seeing page two of the suit and/or the continuation list of defendants being sued for wrongful death. Nonetheless, IMO, unless RW and FW have not been dismissed as defendants, I'm not sure of the point of this suit going forward where any judgment awarded against the imprisoned Wagners will only be worth the paper the award is printed on. JMO

There are multiple reasons to protect your family with a civil suit.

How unfortunate if Ohio has not enacted appropriate and/or sufficient laws to prevent the obvious and force the plaintiffs to endure further emotional trauma and the expense of civil litigation having already lost so much. Hence, my question of whether or not any defendants have been dismissed from the claim.

No, no defendants have been dismissed from the claim.

Yes Ohio has the Son of Sam law but it is still important that victims file civil suits when dealing with catastrophic loss.

None have been dismissed as of yet I do not believe. There probably will be a default judgment on at least 3 since they did not file a response to the civil suit. George's lawyers filed a response but it will be useless. The two grandmothers also filed a response. Rita filed her own response and Fredericka's lawyer filed a response on her behalf.

I am looking forward to watching this Sunday. Do you normally watch the episodes live on youtube, later on youtube or live on the court tv website at the time it airs? Maybe we will get a few tidbits that we do not know.
