2025 trial delay for Billy Wagner's Pike County massacre case due to defense team issues, health concerns, and new transcripts.
Billy Wagner's Pike County massacre trial has been delayed until 2025 due to issues raised by his defense team, including health concerns among defense counsel, the defense attorney's assignment to a death penalty case, and the recent receipt of 16,000 pages of transcripts. The trial involves Wagner, his wife Angela, and sons Jake and George, accused of participating in the 2016 execution-style killings of eight members of the Rhoden and Gilley families in Ohio. Billy faces eight charges of aggravated murder, as well as other charges related to evidence tampering, conspiracy, and forgery.
