Pennsylvania man Brian Bradley Giles took an almost jocular, and quite embittered, tone when Johnstown Fox affiliate WWCP recorded him amid his Thursday guilty verdict for murdering his wife, Nancy Giles.
“Nope, I’m innocent, but if this is what they want to do let them do it, man,” he said. “I’ve been railroaded before. It’s all good. There ain’t nothing I can hope for, right? Everybody got what they wanted.”
Prosecutors reportedly said that over time, the defendant told a total of 18 different stories about what happened to his wife. It turns out, however, death seems to follow him. Authorities in Cambria County said that they found human remains in the basement of the Johnstown home where the couple had lived, according to The Tribune-Democrat. All this happened not only after the murder conviction, but also amid his girlfriend Jilly Todaro’s ongoing disappearance.
“This is going to be a lengthy investigation and methodical process in removing these remains,” Cambria County Coroner Jeff Lees reportedly said.
