BILLY EDWARD CADLE III arrested for killing two cats, two dogs, and a man in two different counties

- West Virginia, USA -

 

West Virginia State Police arrested 44-years-old BILLY EDWARD CADLE III (pictured), who is facing charges in Kanawha and Putnam County.

CADLE, of Cross Lanes, is accused of first-degree murder in Kanawha County and burglary and animal cruelty in Putnam County.

 

On Saturday, March 9, 2024, Trooper Fisher responded to a burglary complaint at a residence in Poca where he was able to identify CADLE as the suspect in the investigation.

It also emerged that CADLE had killed two cats who were found inside the residence.

 

CADLE was located and taken into custody.

 

Meanwhile, authorities received a request for a welfare check at a home on Walnut Valley Drive in Cross Lanes where elements were similar to the report regarding the burglary in Poca. Troopers traveled to Kanawha County and inside the residence they discovered two dead dogs and a 53-year-old male who was also dead.

 

According to investigators, the circumstances surrounding both incidents led them to connect CADLE to both scenes.

 

CADLE is currently in the South Central Regional Jail.

In Putnam County, CADLE is charged with burglary during the day and two counts of animal cruelty. For these crimes his bail has been set at $50,000.

On the other hand, no bail has been set for killing the dogs and the man. Therefore, CADLE will remain in jail for now.

 

Police said additional charges are expected and the investigation is ongoing.
