I'm confuse why Angela only got 30 years. She was the master mind for all of it. She control them till the end, it was about her till the end because she testified to destroy her son when she did it all. Right birth, she control them. I don't think the whole story is out. I believe he told the truth, I believe he didn't want to do it. It is sickening, they are all guilty. He could have stopped it, but he was under control his whole life, he didn't know any different. It destroyed him

[@joannahampton5979]

Seems to me that this all happened bc that horrible woman wanted sole control of her grandchild at any cost and her family complied.

[@Ilene.s]

That's exactly right. A narcissist can ruin an entire family and she sure did. Then she threw all of them under the bus because no one mattered to her but her. Awful people with an evil queen running the show. 🤯

[@mol588]

​@@Ilene.s You're exactly right .. This disgusting Matriarch had total control of everyone round about her, especially her own family, who were all under the thumb . Awful sad case ..

[@earth0128]

They had collective narcissism, but the matriarch was ruler in that family.

[@chasityyoung815]

Yep and then testified against one son and already agreed to help convict her husband next year too. She got the lightest sentence. She is the devil!

I think living a miserable lifetime in prison dealing with your guilt is a good punishment! Their gonna die anyway, I just think prison is hell on earth, then the real thing comes and they have no hope! You ever lived without hope?? It's abject misery.

[@rosiew777]

ALL of them are guilty ! George squirmed throughout the whole trial. Billy is up next. RIP to the 8 souls. The trial was absolutely gut wrenching. I hope the families are healing and surrounded with lovè & support 💕

[@chasityyoung815]

OMG the victim impact statements 😭 I could not stop crying for an hour straight. It was so sad. This crime was absolutely uncalled for. All to get custody. Now the little girl has two generations gone. Mom and her siblings and parents dead. Dad and his parents and sibling In prison forever. It's awful!!

[@kristenbarker29]

Even if he didn't pull the trigger, he did not report the murders to the police, making him as guilty as they are. Life in prison was a good decision by the jury. They didn't fall for his "I am different than the rest of my family" self pity crap. 3 down, 1 more to go. Billy, do yourself and everyone else a favor, enter a guilty plea

[@spicyirwin5835]

I feel like I know the Rhodens from the trials. George's ex was alive bc she gave up her child to the Wagners or she too would be dead. So hope all their victims heal.wagners had a puppy mill too. ADOPT DONT SHOP!💜🐾💜🙏

[@earth0128]

This case is beyond comprehension. The roots of madness in this family run deep. There were never going to be any winners. So sad for the children to be left with such loss. 💔

[@jenerin905]

It's so unthinkable. She was going to take all of them down even though she planned everything, so she had a shot at freedom one day. Wow. I think Billy wasn't found innocent because he didn't do enough to be separate from his family. He was there, and if he didn't want anyone murdered, he should have gone to the police before the killings. He could have stopped all of this if he really wanted to.

[@rochellestarr9538]

[@delib636]

Omg.. 35 years ago I was married for 9 months. I was very young and we moved next door to his mother on their property. His sister was creepy, jealous.. his brother hated me... his mom took my dog and CONTROLLED the family. She would report what times I came and went, my family was not allowed to visit, 😢 and my husband was controlling and abusive. He beat me when he was drunk and kicked me while I was on the floor. His mother came over and asked me "What did I do to cause him to do this!" I grabbed my keys to flee and she took them from me 😮 I then managed to sneak my spare set of keys, run to car, and locked the doors. Covered in blood, hardly able to bend or lift my arms I drove across the state line to a coworkers house and she took me to the hospital. My kidney was so swollen you could visually see it protruding in the photos, doctors said 1 more Kick and it would have ruptured. My sternum was fractured , making it difficult to raise my arms and painful to move, cough,sneeze 😢. Doctors stitched my face while the police took pictures and reports. When the divorce was final and I got my name back all I could say was, "Thank God I didn't have children with this man and his psycho family!!!" I've been happily married for 26 years and retired comfortably. Haven't thought about that past in long time. Listening to the testimony of these women brought back floods of horror and only reminded me 😭 that I had been so thankful 🙏 that I had no offspring attachment to that hideous family... Who knows what could have happened to me and my extended family 😵 I've never shared this life detail with strangers but hopefully I've shown enough RED 🚩Flags to help another person to get out of that type of relationship before it goes bad 💔🙏🙏🙏

They seperate so they can control & abuse. Glad u left but even tho bruises heal, verbal abuse lasts longer. Hope u can heal bc none of the abuse was ur fault they just project! Always ask HOW DO OR DID U GET ALONG WITH UR MOTHER, from now on. I too, was abused with his family taking his side.

As weird as Angela Wagner acted with the grandchildren and how she accused the mothers of sexually molesting them, I wouldn't doubt one bit if SHE was molesting them! Why would she INSIST her grandson's mom go lay down for a nap while she (Angela) played with him? 🤔 Think about it.

[@theresarossi6306]

Minus 10 years automatic discount. Her and Jake most be laughing., no loved George will paid for them. Unvileaval and infuriating that the so called justice allowed another injustice be done, shameful

[@aftonrae4038]

The fact that they felt like they had to take out an entire family to make sure that they got custody of the child, says that they are so unfit that the only way they would get custody is if there was absolutely nobody else available.

Jake and Mom, the two most guilty in my opinion received the sweetheart deals of a lifetime. George and Dad will pay the real price for Jake and Mom's diabolical plan/scheme. They should not have given any deals and instead charged all of them.

They are not getting off easy. Their testimony guaranteed that none of them would get off. Plus it is great seeing them turn on each other.

[@ep3865]

After watching so many crime stories one thing is true, whomever talks first gets the better deal. George should have said something at first maybe he would have gotten a deal. No way this was going to have a not guilty verdict. He was there and he saw things and didn't say anything so in my eyes and the jury's eyes he's guilty thank God.

[@johannas.l.brushane2518]

The dynamic is a bit like for when the last woman to be executed in Sweden in the late 19th century, Anna Månsdotter. They even look a bit alike. Her son and his wife lived at her farm and they killed the wife/daughter in law. She received a lifetime prison sentence for the inappropriate relationship with the son and death by beheading for the murder which she had instigated and participated in. Her son was sentenced to death as well but he was pardoned so he was to serve lifetime in prison with obligation to work. He was described as very much under his mother's spell, he had two siblings but they had both passed in early years. One of them was his twin sister.

[@Sandi-ke9mi]

How did he have no idea they was involved but yet he went with them that night make it make sense.

[@derekwalters4980]

We can't help but think, had the local law followed through with statutory rape, as the one Wagner son, Jake, was probably having sex with Hannah when she was 13 or 14yrs old, and he was an adult. You have to wonder about someone like that, as well as the family that allowed her to move in and live with him under their roof. You'd think that would be contributing to the delinquency of a minor. What the heck is wrong with all those people there? It's just okay that an adult male has sex with young teenagers of 13, 14 or 15? Would all those people still be alive today if they'd have dealt with sketchy behavior years earlier? Good grief!

He had just turned 17. However, my Sister had a gf who was 13 while I was 17. Her mom had her send me cookies while I was in jump school. It bothered me that a mother would encourage her daughter to "grow up too quickly." I gave the cookies to teammates. I would help her with her fixing her first car. After she had turned 18. If I could politely without hurting a young girl's feelings say no to a relationship of any kind in allowing a young girl to grow up at her own pace into adulthood, then he could have too.

This guy has a lot of courage to run away from that corruption that takes so much strength 31:47

[@derekwalters4980]

Amazing how the state of Ohio made the deals with the two worst member of that family. The mother was prodding the sons crimes, she's the one that demanded the children be turned over to her, and Alex is the one who wanted them all dead, as the only way he could have his child.

[@feemarie]

Who’s Alex ? I thought the dude who had the daughter with the Rohden girls name was Jake ?

[@KrispyChanges]

And I’ll live in the next county over. And I remember when this happened. I didn’t realize Billy Wagner has not gone to trial yet.

[@aurorawalls3177]

Angela must be laughing at how she so smartly beet the so called justice. This was a disgrace.

[@LateFourAm]

Angela will have enough time in prison to hit a law degree. It’s not like the DA or Judge were bright bulbs.

[@aurorawalls3177]

I am still sorry for George., I hope that one day the real truth comes out.

[@MackenzieCorkern17]

George might have wanted to get away from his family but it was clear from the trial he still did what mommy and daddy asked of him. If his ex wife had the money to fight for her child she maybe dead to but George got control of his child. George may not have pulled the trigger but he was there during the planning and the murders. He could've came forward and might have saved himself a lot of jail time.

He's where he belongs

I don't know if laying down while sleeping is called execution-style. Because when I think of execution-style I think of all my knees my hands behind my back and my gun behind me. Because I would just call that point blank range.

[@Ilene.s]

It was a total execution. They never saw it coming. Your idea of an execution style murder is what you see in the movies. It happens for sure but shooting someone in the head when they are sleeping is definitely an execution. In other words, they had no chance to fight back. Btw, I am not being critical because not knowing about execution style killings is something none of us really need to know. ✌️

[@holt7088]

Did they say George did not pull the trigger?

[@rr-lx4kg]

Yes

[@rubytuesday5412]

Oh the irony! Angela tells George how the crowd he was hanging with when he was a teen were a bad influence and rubbish people, etc... *SHE* was _THE_ bad influence and a complete POS herself. One has to wonder the reason she was consumed with the idea that the mothers of her grandkids, were sexually abusing their kids... Was it her that was doing that? She was so consumed with the idea, one must wonder why. As for her getting off so lightly for being the *puppet master* of the whole production, is a travesty of justice, to say the least.

[@catsberry4858]

You are *absolutely* right! I bet Angela was SA her own sons! Sick, depraved Human. I hope she gets u know what in prison. I do not believe she is redeemable. For someone so obsessed with SA, I think she made up a lotttt of it

[@geraldine1437]

George could have STOPPED IT ALL! He didn't!

Greetings from Norway.

A complete family annihilated. Inconceivable

[@karlahamilton3615]

I would take the deal off the table they should never be able to get out of prison.

[@thetruestcrimeaddict]

Proof psychopathy can run in a family

[@GaryDoyle-fd3cf]

God, I remember this 😮 this was as premeditated as you can get, and they all should've been put on DEATH ROW.

[@Dr.Gunsmith]

The mother is the main instigator of these crimes, and why have I been banned from KZbin once already for just stating the facts.
