Speaker 1: M a wall Street line, shackle change, Oh weesome, gird,
it's calling my name. There is no mercy and it's
been a tentery juice as the huge stream game Rango three.
Speaker 2: Come here by me or die.
Speaker 1: Inside these walls, inside the wild.
Speaker 2: And went more girls as I, Hey, everyone, welcome back
to Bloody Angola, and I am back with another episode
of fifty Shades of Evil. Last week I dropped the
inaugural episode and I brought you to Texas. I told
you everything there was to know about Billy Joel Tracy,
from his upbringing to his crimes to the convictions that followed.
Thank you to everyone that listened and shared a ton
of response regarding that first episode in this series. And
today I am continuing as I bring you to Florida
in the story of Wayne C. Dody, who in nineteen
ninety six was sentenced to life in prison for the
first degree murder of Harvey Horn the Second, a night
watchman that he shot during a drug related robbery in
Plant City, Florida. Then, in twenty eleven, while serving a
life sentence for that murder at Florida State Prison, Doty
in an accomplice another very dangerous guy by the name
of William Wells murdered a fellow inmate named Xavier Rodriguez.
He was sentenced to death for that murder and has
advocated for his own execution via electric chair ever since.
It's an unbelievable story coming to you today, So let's
jump right into it, and I'm going to take you
first to Pueblo, Colorado, where on April twelfth of nineteen
seventy three, Wayne Duddy was born to biological parents, Randal
Duty and Mary Cole. Now, from all accounts, from his birth,
things were pretty dysfunctional and the relationship already strained between
Wayne Doty's mother and father, so much so that before
Wayne Doty was two years old, his father, Randall, took
him and left the family home, permanently separating Wayne from
his mother. Now, according to his biological mother, she and
Randall had gotten into an argument. She left to go
to the grocery store, and upon her return they were gone,
No note, no nothing. She would call the police, and
the police would say, hey, he's the biological father, and
so it wouldn't be considered kidnapping. You know, that sounds
really bizarre to me, especially these days, But that was
a different time, right, this was the late seventies, and
that's her story and she's sticking to it, and she
would not see her son, Wayne Doty for over twenty
years after that. Now, obviously Wayne Doty very well. He
was a baby back then, at just two years old,
and this did nothing for his stability. And during the
next five years, Randall Dody, his father would remarry multiple times,
and Wayne would obviously be exposed to multiple stepmothers. So look,
you'll get no argument for me that this instability, the
lack of a permanent mother, if you will, the fact
from all accounts that his father had his own issues,
I have no doubt that certainly shape his early adolescence
to where I guess the deck was already getting stacked
against him. He just wasn't dealt a good deck of cards.
But does it excuse what would occur later on in
his life. Not in my view, absolutely not. Many people
grow up in unstable households, even from a super early age,
and they don't kill people. That's just the facts. But
it certainly is not a deck of cards that you
will want to get dealt. So by the time Wayne
was seven, things would escalate even more as it relates
to his home life, there were reports of severe domestic violence.
Several stepmothers would testify in Wayne's initial trial that will
get to later, and they would state that his father, Randall,
would not only physically abuse them, but would physically abuse
Wayne as well. One of his stepmothers, by the name
of Anne Hurdle, would state that Randall's abuse was so
severe that it would interfere with Wayne Dodi's daily life,
such as going to school. He would have bruises from
these beatings that he would get, and he wouldn't be
able to go to school because guess what if they
see you with a black eye or with a broken
arm or something like that, what are they gonna do.
They're gonna ask questions. So he would have to stay
home from school. That would affect his education. And all
of this was prior to the age of ten years old.
The abuse would then intensify further between the years of
nineteen eighty three. In nineteen eighty six, when Wayne was
just ten to thirteen years old, Wayne would then start
skipping school, hanging with the wrong crowds. His dad didn't
appear to give a shit. You could see this kid
was already starting to unravel very early in his life.
So what do you think would happen at that point. Well,
by the time he hit his teenage years, you're probably
already thinking he's gonna start drinking, he's going to start
abusing drugs. That's exactly what happened. And around the age
of seventeen, he actually has had enough. He comes home
one day he sees his father beating the shit out
of his stepmother. He was quoted later on as saying
if he would have had a gun at that time,
he would have killed his dad. And he knew that,
and he said it kind of freaked him out, so
he just laughed. And they were living in Florida at
the time. So he leaves, moves in with a friend,
and that is where things would really start kind of
falling off the rails for Wayne Duty. So before we
get into that, I'm going to tell you about a
resident of Plant City, Florida, by the name of Harvey Horn.
And Harvey Horn was born in nineteen fifty nine and
he grew up in the Plant City area. Now, his
parents were blue collar people, hard workers. They raised him
to work hard and it's family had deep roots in
the Plant City Florida area, so he would grow up
to be a welder and he would focus on a
high paying trade to make his way in life. From
all accounts, and as a matter of fact, from his
own son, his son had said he prioritized his role
as a father, took it very seriously, and he would
go about life, you know, in a blue collar type
of way until he would cross paths with Wayne Duddy.
So I'm going to take you back to early April
of nineteen ninety six. At this time, Harvey was thirty
seven years old and he was working for a company
called Hardy Manufacturing Company. They manufactured agricultural equipment in Plant City, Florida.
He was also a night watchman for this company and
he was a foreman as a welder for them as well.
And the night watchman gig worked out well for Harvey
Horn because one of the perks will of being a
knight watchman was that the company allowed him to live
on the property in a modest mobile home trailer. And
he changed for that they got night security. And that's
pretty common in industrial areas all over the country. You'll
have somebody that maybe lives on the property and helps
with securing the facility. So Wayne Doty and I'm going
to give you his perspective on the relationship. They worked
together at the facility and Harvey was as foreman. Now,
according to Wayne, they would do drugs together often, and
Doty said that Harvey sold crystal meth as kind of
a sideline gig as well as Wayne Doty. Now, this
sideline gig brought Dody to Horn's house one night in
April of nineteen ninety six. And again I want to say,
this is Wayne Doty's story. He claimed that he went
over there to do a drug deal. The deal went
aroun in a fight broke out. Now, Dudey claimed he
was only carrying a handgun that night in order to
trade it for drugs. Because after all this went down,
It's the first thing the police asked him, well, if
you didn't go over there to kill the guy, why
did you have a gun. He claimed that the gun
was a trade for drugs. During this drug deal, a
fight breaks out. He said, he pulled a pistol and
he shoots Horned to death with it. As a matter
of fact, he pumped five bullets into the skull of
Harvey Horn. So the next morning, April twenty first of
nineteen ninety six, co workers arrive at the Hardy manufacturing
facility and it's not long before they get kind of
concerned because Horn would not answer his phone. He's typically
there in the mornings when everybody arrives at that front gate,
and he wasn't there, and people knew something is wrong.
This was not his typical behavior. Over to that trailer,
and then they discover the body of Harvey Horn and
it was in just horrendous shape. Right. They called the
Plant City Police Department and they tell them about this.
It's about eight am in the morning. They report it.
The police arrive and the first thing that is this
forced entry. It looked to them like his door was
kicked in, which makes it kind of questionable as to
where they were really doing a drug deal. The whole
trailer was also ransacked, Drawers were pulled out, bullet casings
scattered everywhere. It was clear that this was a robbery
gone wrong in the police view, so they start an
investigation and it would not take long for them to
get their man, primarily because Wayne Doty could not keep
his freaking mouth shut. By the very next day, tips
start pouring into police. The Wayne Dotty was actually bragging
am this along his drug circles. He just couldn't keep
his mouth shut. Not only was he bragging about his
role in the murder, but he also had an accomplice,
a guy by the name of Brian Lewandowski, who was
seventeen years old at this time, and according to all accounts,
he had stood guard outside the trailer during this murder. Now, incidentally,
Dody was twenty three years old when this murder took place.
So police arrest both Wayne Doty and Brian Lewandowski and
they bring them to the station, and of course, what
do you think Wayne Dotty does. He denies everything to police,
and so police start investigating. They start building a case.
Of course, they get blestic matches from the bullet casings
to match it to the actual handgun. Witness statements were taken.
Now there weren't any eye wentnesses, but character witnesses, if
you will. Fingerprints were recovered, all kinds of things. They
bring all this to Wayne Dotty and they say, look,
we know you freaking did this. We've got all this evidence,
and eventually he would confess to police that he had
committed the crime. Now, there are trials for these two individuals,
and in those trials, Wayne Doty is found guilty of
murder and he does get sentenced to life in prison.
Now is accomplice Brian. That's where kind of the great
area cloudie area of this story exists because I could
not find anything out as to what happened to him
or what his sentence was. I don't know if he
cooperated and they gave him complete immunity or if they
gave him just a very light sentence. I don't know.
I can't find any information on what really happened. So
if you do know and you're listening to this, I
would love to know an update of what actually happened
to the accomplice in this case. But in Duddy's case,
he went to prison for the rest of his life.
So that should be the end of this story. Right
goes to prison, Boom, We're done. Hell no, that's just
the beginning of this story. So shortly after his conviction,
Duddy was transferred to the Florida State Prison in Rayford
and y'all. Florida State Prison in Rayford is a max
security prison. It's known for housing only the most dangerous
of Florida inmates and Dudy would certainly qualify. The prison
has the distinction of being not only Florida's most secure prison,
but also the oldest prison in the state of Florida. Now,
Florida State Prison has a pretty significant history, not unlike
Bloody Angola, and I'm going to reference. It's an article
that came out in the New York Times that gives
you an idea of it, because it's important in this story.
Now we're going to go back to nineteen seventy one
in that uprising at Florida State Prison, and it reads,
I gave the order to shoot. I did it to
protect the inmates themselves. Thus did Louis Wainwright, director of
the Florida Board of Corressions, explaining the February twelfth, nineteen
seventy one incident at the State Prison at Rayford, which
is now referred to by the thirty six hundred convicts
at the state's largest prison as the Lincoln's Day massacre.
Sixty three inmates were wounded when prison guards opened fire
on the group of nearly seven hundred rebellious prisoners who
were staging a sit down strike on the institution's wreck
field and refused to return to their sales for night
lock up. The guards peppered the convicts with birdshot, mister
Wainwright explained in an interview, in order to heard them
from the field to quote the rock the prison's central
cell block, machine gun bullets, which he said were fired
for sound effects struck to the prisoner. The scene were
called for some in the state the kind of prison
conditions that existed in other eras when force of arms
was accepted technique to deal with unruly prisoners. There were
those who had become convinced that Florida him managed to
overcome that image. Mister Wainwright himself said he was surprised
that he had to resort to force. Quote. I'd hope
the day gone when we had to meet resistance with gunfire,
he said. Despite attempts a reform in recent years, some
authorities believe the South's richest and most progressive state today
has the most troubled penal system in the nation, Caught
in an eye spiraling population trend that has placed severe
strain on the state's resources as it struggled to provide
for growth in all public sectors. Appropriations for prison development
have received low priority. Quote. Anytime we try to make
we're progress. We get shot down because the prisons were
at the bottom of the list and there was never
any money left to budget for them. And he's not
lying there. Nobody wants to pay for prisons, right. Mister
Wainewright conceded the prison over crowding had created other problems,
such as sexual assaults and other forms of violence. Designed
to hold twenty four hundred prisoners, it now has thirty
six hundred sixty cells built for four inmates each or
now maybe accommodate. Hundreds of men sleep on floors. Another
serious problem is the prison security force, which is largely
untrained in modern penal techniques. Prison guards received a starting
salary of four hundred and sixty four dollars a month, unbelievable,
and last year alone there was a forty percent turnover.
So that's just a little look at what Wayne Doty
was dealing with and where he was going to spend
the rest of his life. Now, Initially, Doty was housed
in general population on what is known as the K
Wing inside of the prison, which one of the benefits
of being in the K Wing was that Doty's movements
were not restricted or as restricted as those on the
lockdown wings. Those people in the lockdown wings, they're only
out of their cell one hour a day, twenty three
hours a day inside their cell. So I'm going to
fast forward a lot to two thousand eleven, and by
this time Wayne Doty had been in prison for fourteen years,
and he was what was known as a runner by
this point in time in prison, which is considered a
privileged status. Think of it as a trustee in other prisons.
His responsibilities would include distributing and picking up meal trays
from the inmates, claiming common areas of the prison, running
errands for prison staff throughout the prison, and by most accounts,
officials inside the prison said he was a very good worker.
It was, of course, inside this prison that he would
cross pass with an inmate by the name of Xavier Rodriguez.
Now a little bit about Xavier. He was very young,
just twenty one years old when the incident I'm about
to tell you about took place. At this time, Dody
was thirty eight. Now, despite Xavier's young age, he had
already been in prison for four years. He had been
handed down a ten year sentence when he was just
seventeen years old for robbery He was also housed at
the K Wing inside of Florida State Prison. Now, Dody
had kind of a business going on in the prison
at this time. He would sell tobacco to other inmates,
and the way he would get the tobacco to the
other inmates was using runners on the K Wing to
transport it. They would go down the cell block with
that food tray like you see on the TV right
when you're watching movies, and he would put some of
this tobacco on there and they would deliver it. Xavier
was one of those runners that would deliver this tobacco.
So in April of twenty eleven, Dody had Xavier run
this tobacco to another area of the unit, and rather
than deliver the product, Xavier kept it and he sells
it to someone else. And that's a big deal inside
a prison in regardless of whether it's right or wrong.
There has to be a response to that, or you're
going to be seen basically as a punk and everybody's
going to start stealing your shit. Everybody is going to
start taking advantage of you. Dody being a VET in
that prison, right, he is an actual, an actual convict
rather in the prison and there's a difference between inmates
and convicts. Convicts just want to do their time right.
So Dody learns of this and for two weeks he
plans a retaliation against Xavier. And Xavier was young, he
probably didn't realize yet how serious this was. So Dody
he enlists the help of another inmate, a guy by
the name of William Wells. Now Wells probably the second
most dangerous inmate in the state of Florida, and he
is actually infamously known as the Monster of Mayport. In
two thousand and three, this guy killed six people in
one family. I must did an episode. I must did
this episode on him. I may still do an episode
on this guy. But regardless of that, Wayne Doty and
less Wells to be a lookout for this plan. He
then takes some tobacco and he trades that tobacco for
a shank sharpened down from a piece of scripe metal.
And you know what he's gonna do with that. He
takes that shank and he hides it in the ac
duck work of the third floor interview room. And before
go any further, let me say this tobacco in prison
is like freaking one hundred dollars. It's like the most
expensive thing you could trade in prison. So he had
a good thing going and he felt like this inmate,
Xavier was stepping all over it. So he's continuing on
with this plan. He starts noting when the guards were
coming and going from that particular third floor wing, and
he really planned this thing out to the most minute
of details. He in Wells would then approach Xavier this
is on May seventeenth of twenty eleven, and they would
tell him that they want to play a game of
Coastguard handcuffs. Now y'all may wonder what is Coastguard handcuffs.
This is a game that convicts play where basically a
bet is placed that you can't get out of bindings
tied behind your back. Usually they'll take like old T
shirts or something, and you've got to get out of him.
Doddy tells Xavier if he can get out of the
bindings that Doddy would give him one hundred dollars in tobacco,
and Xavier agrees how he couldn't see this coming after
he stole this man shit, I have no idea, but
he agrees to play this game, and Doddy and Wells
tells Xavier. We're going to do this in the third
floor interview room, which is obviously where Doddy had hid
that shank. And once inside of that interview room, Wells
positions himself against the door, so he's basically blocking that
door so no one can go in er out. And
this is a very cramped third floor interview room, right,
very small space, dimly lit. There's nothing in there but
a table. So with the door skeered by Wells, Doddy
moves in behind Rodriguez and he just puts him in
what's known as a rare naked choke, choking him from behind.
The choke last about a minus minute, and Dody said
within seconds that Xavier starts pissing himself, which is obviously
a sign you're in a bond. You can't breathe. Eventually
Rodriguez would go unconscious and Dody would just drop him
into the floor, but he wasn't dead yet, and that's
exactly what Dody wanted. At that point, he retrieves a shank,
which sharpened piece of metal that he had hidden in
that duck work. It was about eight inches long, and
he begins stabbing Rodriguez furiously twenty five times to his neck,
his torso, and his chest. Now, even after that, even
after this man was dead, Dody was not done yet.
As Xavier's body lay there, he takes the knife and
he attempts to carve out Xavier's heart. However, that shank
was dull. He just could not make it happen. Then,
just to make sure this guy's dead, Xavier, he takes
a shoelace and he ties it as tighty as he
possibly can, almost popping the shoelace tying it around Robriguez's neck.
After the assault, Xavier Robriguez laying on the floor twenty
five times. He's been stabbed, his heart. They tried to
cut his heart out. He's there's blood everywhere. And after
that assault, dodium Wells sit down on the table inside
of that interview room and guess what they do. They
smoke a cigarette. They then calmly leave that room. Doddy
takes a quick shower in the shower room, then goes
to the first floor of K Wing and he tells
the guard that, hey, someone's dead in the third floor
interview room. As a matter of fact, he tells the
guard quote, we just killed an inmate and there is
a body in the interview room. He even tried to
hide it. So guards rush to the scene. They find
Rodriguez's body, blood everywhere in the room, and of course
they take the two perpetrators and they put them in
lockdown immediately in separate cells. They interview them and both
admit to everything that I just told you. So of
course there's a trial on this one, and in the trial,
Doddy pleads guilty and he gets the death penalty. This
is on June fifth of twenty thirteen. Now, in twenty fifteen,
Doddy does something kind of unheard of in the vast
majority of cases when you get death penalties. He starts
advocating for his own execution. But not only that, he
starts advocating for his own execution via electric chair, and
he wants it as soon as possible. At this time,
they were giving you the drugs right to kill you.
He didn't want that. He wanted the electric chair because
you couldn't get the drugs at the time, and he
was ready to get executed. But he hits a roadblock
on his own wishes because in twenty sixteen, his sentence
actually gets vacated due to what's known as the Hearst ruling.
See in his death penalty trial, his sentence, the death
sentence itself was actually imposed by a judge. Well, the
Hearst ruling stated that it was unconstitutional under the sixth
Amendment for a judge to impose a death sentence. You
had to have a jury do that. So his case
gets thrown out and they have to retry him all
over again, which they do, and in twenty eighteen he
has found guilty again, this time by a jury, and
that jury imposes the death penalty. May I add Wayne
Doty's urging. So where's Wayne Doty today? Well, he's currently
still awaiting execution. Even with all his advocating, he can't
get executed. No date has been set as of this recording,
and he's currently fifty two years old. Now I want
to reference another quick article. This one lends some clarity
to Doddy's mindset, I think at least. It was published
on February twenty fifth, twenty twenty five by LADBible dot
com and a lady by the name of Lucy Devine,
and it reads death row Inmate gives flabbergasting explanation for
being first to choose electric chair over lethal injection. He
goes on to read a death row inmate was the
first to choose the electric chair of releethal injection, but
his explanation is left people flabbergasted. Wayne Doty is currently
an inmate at Florida State Prison. After he shot and
killed Harvey Horn the Second in nineteen ninety six, he
was sentenced to life in prison, but later ended up
on death row after he killed a fellow inmate, Xavier
Rodriguez in twenty eleven. In the US, the most common
form of execution for prisoners on death row as a
lethal injection. But back in twenty seventeen, Doby told Action
News that he wanted to opt for the electric chair,
and it was actually even before then that he was
doing that quote. Not you, not anybody else. It's my life,
it's my crime, it's my means of execution, Dody is
quoted is saying speaking about Doddy's decision, Action News Serena
Faison explained the flabbergasting choice, revealing that Dody doesn't like
needles and believes electrocution is more humane method of execution. Well,
A couple of problems I have with those quotes. First
of all, you didn't give Xavier any choice of how
he he was gonna die. Why should you get a choice.
And secondly, you're afraid of needles, too bad? Shouldn't have
done what you did. Quote electricity two thousand of three
thousand volts of electricity right through a person's brain will
render you dead within seconds, said Dody. Although we are
locked up in prison, we have our own rights. However,
it's a decision that is shocked many, with Mark Elliott,
executive director of Floridians for Alternatives, explaining, I don't understand.
I don't know what his motives are. Although electrocution was
once most widely used method, it is now rarely used
at all. The method sees the inmates strapped to a
chair and electrocuted with high voltage currents. It lasts about
two minutes. Meanwhile, lethal injection is usually a trio of
chemicals given in three stages. An anesthetic which puts the
inmate to sleep, a second drug that causes paralysis, in
a third drug that stops the heart. Florida stopped using
the electric chair as its primary method of execution following
the death of triple murderer Alan Lee Davis, whose execution
was surrounded with controversy after he bled profusely from the
news during electrocution. So he's been advocating for that forever.
That's how he wants it. Again. He doesn't get necessarily
to choose. I don't know why he should get to
choose how he's going to get executed when the person
that he executed. Keep that in mind, he executed someone.
They didn't get a choice. But you know, it's all
about control for a lot of these guys. If they're
going to kill me, I want to be able to
control how they kill me. Well, fuck you, Wayne Doady.
That's what I think about it again. He's now in
his early fifties, still on death row, and incidentally, Florida
has executed a record nineteen inmates just this past year
in twenty twenty five under Governor Ron Desanna. But Daddy's
case still remains in appeals as to how he's going
to get executed. And I wonder, I really do. I
wonder if this guy is so smart he has figured
out if I try to change the method, I can
actually stay alive longer, because had he just given in
and let them give him the needle or however they're
execute him now. They may be doing the gas now,
but if he would have given in and just let
them do that, hmm, I wonder if he would have
already been executed. He may be smarter than people think,
and this all may be just deployed. But that's something
for all of us to wonder. Only he knows for sure.
Thank you so much for listening. I'll be back next
week with another episode of Bloody and Gola in this
special series fifty Shades of Evil. Where will I be going?
You'll find out soon And until next time, I'm Jim
Chapman with Bloody and goa Peace. M I walk street.
Speaker 1: Line, Shackle Chaine. Oh woesome girdie, it's calling my name.
There is no mercy and it's been a tentery juice
as the Hustream game Wrangle three.
Speaker 2: I'm here behind.
Speaker 1: By me to die inside these walls, inside the wild,
