DC authorities: Ex-con had help in slaying of rich family

Authorities in the nation's capital say more than one person is responsible for the slayings of four people inside a Washington mansion last week.

A fugitive task force arrested Daron Dylon Wint Thursday night, and took five people who were with him into custody. Wint is the only person currently charged with the murder of Savvas Savopoulos; his wife Amy; their 10-year-old son, Philip; and their housekeeper, Veralicia Figueroa.

But a court document suggests investigators aren't done making arrests. It says "the crimes described in this affidavit required the presence and assistance of more than one person."

Was the $40k already scheduled or part of the plan/operation?

I suspect the five who were detained along with him may have been his helpers.

I would be surprised the $40k was intercepted by this crew. I think they masterminded the $40k take, forcing the father to request it be delivered. I say publicly torture them all, then wait a bit, then burn them all dead like the evil vermin they are.

$40k ÷ ___ = _____ (nice round number for each suspect)

It seems pretty obvious it was the quick ransom they tried. Didn’t work. This particular thug was given the assignment of getting rid of the car. Too high-profile to drive around.

Perhaps he demanded money, and the family arranged to get him some, in hopes that he would let them go...

why is the word "rich" in the title?......meaningless in this horrible event.....

btw..I think its important for families to talk with each other about different scenarios, how to handle things, etc....

you can't let people tie you up...once you do, you're a goner....always fight....

No doubt more of Obama’s would-be sons were involved.

‘Why is the word rich in the title’ Surely you know that answer.

In addition, he word "mansion" is now being used in some news broadcasts instead of "home" or "house." Four innocent people lost their lives in this horrible crime.
