He asked me if the kids were okay. I said yes theyre fine. He said that you have a chance to talk to me, and sending a counselor to talk to the kids. Moments later jarred somewhat he assumed was that counselor in the front yard. As i looked, i saw in my for a peripheral vision an Officer Approach me with a gun drawn. And he said dont move. He pushed me against the wall, put my hands behind my back, and company. Before he got his bearings, he said his kids were with off in an suv. The sheriff okayed a search of his home, and he was whisked to the Police Station for an interview. The conversation started amicably. Jarod ingram said the last time he saw ciara was a couple of days before. He was picking up some stuff before her movie indiana. Kids when, in and they started playing. And watching tv. How long were you there for . Seemed like a couple of hours. He said they had not talk sense. That wasnt unusual, we didnt call each other a whole lot when we have the kids. She wasnt one person the cuddle every day. Detectives wanted to know about the state of their relationship. How they were getting along . He said they hadnt had any issues lately, but admitted things between them were strained. Whats been the problem . No problem. I just. Once we broke up. I felt like there was no reason to have an argument anymore. They also asked him how he felt about his decision to move to indiana. She didnt really ask me about it . Did she ask . You know. So she just said im leaving . Yeah. That is her. After about an hour, the interview took a turn and the detectives hit him with a revelation.

Because if i was the last one that saw her alive, then you could put it on me. Well im not gonna put something on anybody. Im gonna take the evidence for what its worth. And a look at some of the evidence made it seem unlikely that jarod couldve done it. The murder was brutal, bloody. And his two small children had been with him the whole time. Though jarod did mention that is they were going to leave the apartment, the kids went outside first. They went outside, and i came outside, and she came outside. And that was it. It wasnt a long period of time. The detectives really think that jarod had something to do with his ex wifes murder . Or where they just pressing him because he was the exhusband . They entered the interview on friendly terms. I appreciate you coming in. And i appreciate you guys are doing. It has been a very long night. Jarod says he was just desperate to hug his kids who had lost their mother. You could see why you became a figure of interest here . When i sit back and put my shoes and the shoes of the Police Officers. Absolutely. They showed up to the, house they found a body, they picked me up.

And then, about a week before, they, she quit texting me. Ryan thought he had been ghosted. Said that he canceled his plane ticket. And i just extra back, i said hey thanks a lot for the top thoughtfulness. And thanks for wasting my money. Detectives didnt tell them right away why they called. Whats going .
