Former WWE Wrestler Billy Jack Haynes Charged With Second-Degree Murder of Wife

Billy Jack Haynes, 70, faces charges following the fatal shooting of his 85-year-old wife, Janette Becraft, in their Portland home.

Haynes was booked on charges of second-degree murder and unlawful use of a weapon after police found Becraft deceased from a gunshot wound.
The incident led to a standoff with police, who were called to the couple's home on February 8th after reports of gunfire.
Haynes, known for his wrestling career in the WWE, was taken into custody after refusing to surrender for hours.
Neighbors reported that Becraft had been suffering from dementia, and Haynes had recently been hospitalized for unrelated medical issues.
Haynes is scheduled to make his first court appearance on Thursday.
