ORIGINAL ARTICLE:
FAIRMONT, W.Va (WDTV) - The prosecution alleges that John Wolfe, a member of the Pagan Motorcycle Club, conspired to murder Henry Silver on Sept. 9, 2022 in Carolina, West Virginia.
During the cross examination of several witnesses, it was revealed Silver had been in an intimate relationship with Wolfe’s partner Megan Ball.
Ball says the affair had been going on for sometime when Wolfe became aware; and that Wolfe was aware of several other affairs in the past, but had never resorted to violence.
On the day in question, Silver arrived at the Carolina Arbors apartment complex. Both Ball and Wolfe were in the apartment along with 3 children.
Ball met Silver in the stairwell telling him he had to leave. Ball left for about 25 minutes to go to Circle K in Monongah.
When Ball returned she saw a black truck speed past her and Silver was dead in in the parking lot.
Other witnesses testified they saw several men dressed in all black with ski masks shoot Silver and then speed off in a black truck.
The trial is expected to last 3 days. Stay connected to 5 News for more details around the alleged conspiracy.
