Going Ringside Ep. 124: Billy Jack Haynes deemed unfit to stand trial

Haynes was charged with 2nd degree murder in death of his wife

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – On this episode of Going Ringside, we delve into the latest developments surrounding old-school wrestler Billy Jack Haynes.

Last year, Going Ringside documented when he was charged with second-degree murder in the death of his wife.

The case had remained quite quiet until a few weeks ago, when Haynes did an interview for “Dark Side Of The Ring” from jail. Haynes declared he was not guilty of this crime.

Then, days after that documentary aired, news came out that Haynes had been deemed unfit to stand trial.

On this episode, we’re joined by old-school territorial wrestler Fidel Sierra, who wrestled as The Cuban Assassin. Sierra worked alongside Haynes over the years and offers some chilling comments about Haynes.

We’re also joined by a veteran homicide detective to break down this latest development in the case.
