BILLY JACK HAYNES TALKING POINTS

WWE Wrestler Billy Jack Haynes has been charged with murder, according to police in Portland, Oregon.

The Portland Police Bureau said in a news release that Haynes, 70, has been booked into the Multnomah County Detention Center on charges for murder in the second degree and unlawful use of a weapon after his wife Janette Becraft, 85, was found dead in their home.

On Feb. 8, the Portland Police Bureau said officers responded to a report of a shooting inside a home in the Lents neighborhood of Portland, and identified Becraft as the victim.

Police say Haynes was at the home and did not cooperate with responding officers when they arrived on the scene. Officers said they believed that he had been armed with a gun at the time, prompting the police to set up a perimeter around the home and issue a shelter in place order to nearby residents.
