What happened during the Banfield family incident?
This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed human. Body Bags with Joseph Scott Moore. You know, I've got to tell you, I don't necessarily run in circles of rich folks. I never have. I don't come from a bunch of wealth or anything like that. My family's been, you know, on the North American continent, I guess, since the 1600s. But whoever was in charge of acquiring wealth in my family, they failed miserably. So none of that was ever passed on to me. I've certainly never been around folks that can afford to have a...
What forensic evidence was found at the crime scene?
I don't know, you know, one of them stay-at-home nannies, or they call them an au pair, you know, to watch after the young folks, take care of the babies for you. Never understood that. I don't know. I guess people have the ability to do that. My family never did that. Plus, I love taking care of my own young'uns. Love taking care of my grandbabies, too. I don't want to hand them off to somebody, but that's just me. But you know, there's a case that has been going on for some time, and I've had a lot of you guys ask me about my opinion regarding... regarding this case and the IRS agent who's now on trial for his life because of the forensics here, because the forensics are so odd in this case. And this case involves many things that we talk about, you know, in the forensic world, specifically crime scene staging, you know, which is a discipline all in of itself.
So today on Body Bags, as the case up in Virginia is going on right now of this man, Brendan Banfield, who in fact is an IRS agent. He's on trial for his life. Let's dig into this a little bit. It's piqued my curiosity, that is for sure.
How did the 911 calls unfold during the incident?
So without further ado, guess what? I'm Joseph Scott Morgan, and this is Body Bags. Brother Dave, I don't know about you. I never had folks take care of my youngins for me. I mean, family, you know, would watch them periodically, but it was me and Kimmy. I've never really understood these folks that, you know, sign up to take care of other people. It's one thing to clean up the mess of your own kids, but to... to clean up the mess of somebody else's kids. It's just, it's, it's something different for me and it's something I can't identify with it. But if you have enough money, you know, you could, you know, you can afford to do that.
What was the nature of the relationship between Brendan Banfield and the au pair?
Well, here's what we've got friends. We actually have an IRS special agent. That means he carries a gun, Brendan Banfield. We have the all pair for Brendan and his wife, Christine, who is a Juliana Perez Magaliz at the time, 23 years old. Um, Christine Banfield is 37, by the way. And then we got a guy, a guy named Joseph Ryan. He's not connected to this before the event takes place, really. And what happens is on the morning where we are now almost three years removed from when this happened.
God, is it been three years?
What role did digital forensics play in the investigation?
February 24th, 2023. Police are called to the Banfield home. for a stabbing and a shooting around 8 o'clock in the morning, give or take. I say give or take. We'll get into that in a little bit. There was more than one call made. I'm going to be honest with you. When there's more than one 911 call made from a residence and you've got dead bodies, somebody didn't have their story straight. That's what I'm thinking.
Yeah, it's one.
How did the events lead to the shootings of Joseph Ryan?
Hey, look, I got to. Can I just make a point here? It's one thing. And I'm glad you brought this up because, you know, it's one thing if you're working a case and you've got multiple ear witnesses or you've got multiple eyewitnesses, say something takes place in front of a home in view of everyone. or something, running gun battles going down the street. And yeah, you might get multiple 911 calls that are coming in from all these different locations. As a matter of fact, we could go back and talk about the surgeon case up in Ohio. Remember how the 911 operator acted? Yeah. And, you know, when they call that thing in and they had multiple people.
Where there were so many family members and coworkers and friends that didn't couldn't get them on the phone. So they went to the house and they're calling 9-1-1 and the 9-1-1 operators already talked to somebody from there.
