Joe’s communications with Dylan showed they were looking for a 3rd to do BDSM play that and Victor wasn’t expected to come home until his plans changed. Victor’s not into BDSM. The presence of Robert’s semen is crucial. This makes me think that he was probably operating on a “down low” with his wife. This happens everyday in real life,

The manner of death was probably due to erotic asphyxiation. The stabbing was staged. They did the stabbing after asphyxiation gone wrong, cleaned him up, put his dress on (remember no fiber of his shirt was found on the knife) put his mouth guard in, put him in bed, and then Victor freaked out, got everyone riled up causing him to call 911.

Can you please stop with this?? So much victim blaming, even now, so many years later.

Speaking of erotic asphyxiation, didn’t Anthony Bourdaine die that way?

Anthony Bourdaine died by suicide. You might be thinking of David Carradine he died by accidental erotic asphyxiation.

"The manner of death was probably due to erotic asphyxiation." I guess you didn't read the full autopsy report/coroner's report. Also, you have just breezed by all the injection marks on his body. And the fact that Robert was straight.

The chief coroner indeed said cause of death was wound stabbing, I believe he was already dead by asphyxiation before he was stabbed. Have you heard of “down low”?

I just watched the Peacock documentary. It is so sad and upsetting that it there is still no justice for Robert. I feel horrible for his wife and family. The three friends seem very creepy and I wouldn’t be surprised if they have killed before and covered it up.

DP, not the one to whom you're responding, but what you "believe" means absolutely nothing. Saying the cause of death was something other than what the coroner found, based on what you "believe," is your own total fantasy. Do you want to insist on autoerotic asphyxiation because you want to solve the case yourself, or because the idea fulfills some kind of kink for you, PP? Maybe a little of both? Don't answer, no one here actually cares, you just need to know your so-called beliefs are your personal delusions based on no evidence. Seek help for your out of control fantasies you portray as theories.

No, Bourdain just killed himself. Maybe you’re thinking of Michael Hutchence.

Agree. Was way too practiced and quick for it to be a first time imho.

The shoddiness of the DC lab, weakness of the USAO office and bungling of the handling of the house did the case no favors. I do believe MPD tried hard, this case was a huge focus. Had there been more blood more tests could have been run then or in the future.

I keep coming back to where did all the blood go? Down a drain or siphoned off?

I think it was a thrill kill. I was told by someone who moved in the elite high power folk BDSM scene with Joe that they likely had a cleaning crew on hand. I was not sure what to make of that but it was a very creepy convo to have in a professional setting. You can hire specialized crews to clean blood, etc usually after a homicide or suicide. As colleague said, no need for a time delay.

Not only was it carefully planned but it was a race against time esp with the way sound travels in those houses. And they did get away with it, so far. Maybe Joe wanted the other 2 to be powerfully bound to him. 3 men, 3 stab wounds, quite the legal conundrum is everyone stays silent.

Absolutely tragic.

This also took place before Ring cameras, etc. I suspect there were parties who left, if it happened today may have been caught on video.

I agree. And what boggles my mind more than anything, is this -- how do you know that these two other people you live with are also sadistic psychopathic killers? I mean, if you or I asked our best friend or spouse or boyfriend if they'd be down for doing something like this, I would hope that would be the end of the relationship and an involuntary stay at a psychiatric hospital.

The idea that people would and could talk about doing something like this with other people, planning it out....it just horrifies me that a) there are people that sick out there and b) they somehow found each other.

It is really that hard to understand, they were in a 3 way BDSM relationship.

But it wasn’t a 3-way relationship. It was two 2-way relationships. Joe and Victor were domestic partners with kids; Joe and Dylan were in a BDSM relationship that didn’t include Victor. I tend to think Joe and Dylan killed Robert and Victor was only involved in covering it up (why, who knows, but if he wasn’t I think he’d have flipped). I think that’s what makes it so hard to charge anybody - we all know “they” did it, but which one(s)?

Were the kids living with them?

According to the pathologist’s report, it said that blood vessels in Wone's eye had burst, an indicator of suffocation.

No, answered above. Kids lived with moms in Silver Spring.

I dunno if I'd say that MPD did their best, though. Wasn't it MPD who was responsible for incorrect application of the substance that was used to try to find more forensic evidence (not luminol, something else)? I definitely think that the USAO got outgunned by the defense, which is pretty predictable. I'm a social worker, not a lawyer, but it seems to me that a jury trial would probably be a better call for both sides, but ESPECIALLY the prosecution, given the problems with the case. "Murder weapon" that is probably not the murder weapon, extreme lack of forensic evidence on the scene, no confessions or movement at all from the 3 living people in the house - all of those things definitely create a reasonable doubt if you're trying to convict them of murder, but that's not what the trial was. Those things definitely create an impression that the 3 living people went to great lengths to cover things up, and juries seem more likely to make an emotional call vs a judge who would maybe see it more clinically.

Property records show that Joe and Victor left Florida last year and last/current address is also Silver Spring.

Perfect time to get some answers then
