OH Pike County: 8 in Rhoden Family Murdered Over Custody Issue 4 Members Wagner Family Arrested#47

[tlcya]

George Wagner is accused of killing a family of 8 living on a pot farm in Pike County OH. While first thought to be drug related the killings now could be the result of a custody battle. 3 other members of the Wagner family have been arrested as well. So many twists and turns and Websleuths members are on top of every single thing that happens in the shocking case.

The gruesome slayings have rattled this southeast corner of Appalachian Ohio, a region that culturally identifies more closely with neighboring Kentucky and West Virginia than the state’s northern cities.

[...]

Adding to the shock was the discovery of hundreds of illegal marijuana plants on Rhoden’s property, highlighting the region’s dependency on the illegal drug trade as jobs in agriculture and timber have dried up.

The number of off topic posts in this thread is unacceptable.

This thread is about the Rhoden family murders. Do not make the thread about yourself and do not discuss other members. If there is a concern about a post, use the Report feature to let WS staff know about it and do not discuss it on the board.

Please do not bring social media hoopla and drama from other boards/sites into discussion at Websleuths. It can only serve to bring WS down to the same level ... which we are not.

Do not respond to posts that are obviously off topic. It only makes the job of cleaning up the thread so much harder. We appreciate when you Report TOS violations quickly so we can catch things before they get out of hand.

WS staff do not and cannot sit in each and every WS thread to read what is going on in real time. So, posts like "mods please delete if not allowed" are usually NOT seen by a Mod unless someone Reports them. If you think something might not be allowed, please ASK first so WS staff don't have to clean up all the mess that follows if it is not allowed.

As always, your co-operation is appreciated.

updated summary courtesy of BettyP:

OH Pike County: 8 in Rhoden Family Murdered Over Custody Issue 4 Members Wagner Family Arrested#44

"George Wagner III, his wife Angela and their two sons, George IV and Jake, are accused of killing 8 members of the Rhoden family, living in 4 different homes in Pike County, OH. Nearly all the victims were shot at point blank range, while they slept, some with infants and toddlers sleeping nearby.

While first thought to be drug related, Ohio's former Attorney General and current Governor, Mike DeWine says after a full investigation, the killings were the result of Jake Wagner's anger at Hannah Rhoden over custody of their 3 yr old daughter.

Four members of the Wagner family have been arrested on murder and other charges. The grandmothers of Hannah Rhoden's daughters, Rita Jo Newcomb and Fredericka Wagner, have been arrested on charges ranging from forgery to perjury and obstruction of justice.

So many twists and turns and Websleuths members are on top of every single thing that happens in this shocking case.

The gruesome slayings have rattled this southeast corner of Appalachian Ohio, a region that culturally identifies more closely with neighboring Kentucky and West Virginia than the state's northern cities."

Were they missing someone in this case?
I only ask because with the Tyler Davis case, I have been looking at the AG page of missing adults and there is a high rate of missing adults in the small towns of OH (jmo).

Thanks for the info. I'm moving through thread 41. Hopefully will make it to 40 tonight. So, I'm just a whole lotta behind putting some of the pieces together.

Chick, here's some links for you, just in case you haven't seen them. I understand your trying to get "up to speed."

Does anyone know of any evidence that the W4 were in Alaska in May 2017?

searches started 5/12/17 (Friday)
Angela interviewed 5/13/17 (Saturday)

5/15/17 (Monday) the article below with this statement included
“Jake Wagner's Facebook page claimed he was on vacation in Alaska and Canada Monday morning but by early evening the photos had been removed.”

Questions remain after Pike County massacre investigators search properties

Interviews continued 5/16-21/17

If they were vacationing I’m not sure why he removed the photos. I think “vacation” was to make it appear to the public like they had no clue what was going on under the disguise of being away on vacation.

Another article:
‘During those searches, the Wagners were in Alaska on a "family vacation," Angela Wagner has said.”

IF her statement IS true, I guess vacation was a bit interrupted by investigators for questioning.

Don’t know if this is who they found but he has been missing jmo

 

[Loomis124]

JMO, from what Dewine said, killers knew the victims routines well. Also had heard every conversation they had with others, so they knew who to expect would find the victims and likely knew the times. I don't think they wanted to delay the finding of those children. JMO
