Search warrants cast suspicion on assistant in D.C. mansion murders
Detectives investigating the murders of four people in a Washington, D.C. mansion are focusing now on a former assistant to one of the victims.
Businessman Savvas Savopoulos; his wife, Amy; their 10-year-old son, Philip; and the family's housekeeper, Veralicia Figueroa were killed last month -- in an apparent extortion plot.
Search warrants reveal police suspicions aimed at the man who delivered the ransom -- Jordan Wallace, the personal driver for and assistant to Savvas Savopoulos.
Police say Wallace lied or "changed his account" about the $40,000 he took to the Savopoulos family's mansion on the morning of the murders, including "how he received the package, where he left [it] and when he was told to get the package."
Investigators obtained a warrant for all of Wallace's texts, calls and locations going back to Sunday, May 10, three days before the family is believed to have been taken captive, tortured and later killed.
But the prime suspect in the case remains Daron Wint - who is currently in custody.
Court documents reveal police discovered a "single broken window pane" on a side door of the Savopoulos family's home and that "a shoe or boot print is visible on the exterior, suggesting forced entry." That dispels the theory that Wint may have been invited in the home since he worked for Savvas Savopoulos in the past.
Police are still searching for the family's extensive security system. CBS News learned Wednesday that the video recorder is missing.
Police also believe the assailants stole the cell phones of the three adult victims and have been tracking the location of those phones, hoping that brings new leads or suspects.
As for Jordan Wallace, he has not returned repeated calls seeking comment.
