Special Forces Child Killer Murders Two Firefighters, Kills Patsy Wess Cuchiara-Roley

Travis Decker Murdered His Own Three Daughters, Then Murdered Two Firefighters A Month Later With A Young Patsy. Researchers Believed Decker Was Trying To Dupe Patsy To Take Him To Canada

An ex-Army Special Forces soldier, Travis Decker, who murdered his own three children a month ago, murdered two firefighters and almost a third firefighter yesterday in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.

But no law enforcement is looking for the known murderer of his own children who was recently in the Coeur d’Alene area on the run.

Instead, law enforcement attention has focused on a twenty-year-old with no criminal record at all, and so far, we haven’t even found a parking ticket.

Story summary -

Law-enforcement officials in northern Idaho have zeroed in on 20-year-old drifter Wess Cuchiara-Roley—found dead beside a shotgun on Canfield Mountain—as the lone gunman who set a wildfire, then gunned down two veteran fire-service chiefs and wounded a third.

Sheriff Bob Norris insists the case is closed, even though no motive has emerged and forensic processing of the scene was minimal. Sheriff Norris admits that Cuchiara-Roley has no criminal record, and his last roommate for six months, TJ Franks, says he never saw Cuchiara-Roley with a weapon.

We went from a press conference yesterday with up to four shooters with rapid fire, high-powered rifles to one kid with a shotgun in twenty-four hours with Sheriff Norris.

Sheriff Norris has not produced the phone records or geolocation data for Wess Cuchiara-Roley or his Google searches. His social media was also scrubbed? Why?

Critics note that investigators never publicly considered Travis Decker, the ex-Army Special Forces soldier who vanished a month earlier after allegedly suffocating his three daughters in Wenatchee, Washington. Decker had reportedly been spotted in the Coeur d’Alene area days before the ambush and was already the subject of a U.S. Marshals fugitive hunt.

Independent researchers argue that Decker—armed, desperate, and searching for a ride to Canada—could have befriended Wess Cuchiara-Roley, used him as cover, then killed him during the chaos. They point to altered police photos, unguarded trailheads, and the immediate appearance of federal sniper teams as hints that authorities knew a high-profile fugitive was nearby.

Yet, by hastily removing Wess Cuchiara-Roley’s body without collecting full DNA, ballistics, or scene imagery, deputies may have erased evidence of Decker’s presence and allowed him to slip through the cordon. While public mourning centers on the fallen firefighters, Travis Decker—charged with triple child murder—remains unaccounted for.

The Facts Of The Case

Kootenai County Sheriff Bob Norris has contradicted my reporting, saying the shooter was a twenty-year-old, Wes Cuchiara Roley. We believe Cuchiara-Roley was actually murdered by Travis Decker, and Decker is the murderer of the two slain firemen.

We are not accusing Sheriff Bob Norris of deliberately allowing Travis Decker to escape and blaming his murdered patsy, Wess Cuchiara Roley. But we do believe the destruction of the crime scene evidence and the Sheriff’s contamination of the murder scene may have obscured the escape of Travis Decker.

There is a substantial body of evidence that Cuchiara-Roley was just befriended by Travis Decker and may not have fired a firearm at all. Our researchers believe Travis Decker may have killed Cuchiara-Foley when he refused to take Decker to Canada.

Wess Cuchiara-Roley worked at his stepfather’s tree farm in Priest River, Idaho.

Interestingly, a modified AI photograph was released by the authorities of Wess Cuchiara-Roley. I hate to say this, but this story has Patsy written all over it.

Our researchers believe he befriended a young, twenty-year-old man, Wess Cuchiara Roley, and Cuchiara Roley was killed by Federal snipers from a Federal helicopter. Authorities are now saying Wess Cuchiara-Foley was the lone gunman.

Tony Cuchiara employed Wess Cuchiara-Roley at Arizona Archery, and Tony Cuchiara was a US State Department and Armed Diplomatic Security Services Officer, a common diplomatic front for the CIA.

I was able to break this story on India Today just after Cuchiara-Roley’s body arrived at Kootenai Health Medical Center. I did not have the ties to the Cuchiaras and the US State Department Armed Diplomatic Security Services at the time.

It is difficult to imagine how any father could take the life of his three beautiful daughters, putting plastic bags over their heads, zip tying their hands, and then throwing their bodies down an embankment. But this is exactly the type of person who would prey on the gullible Wess Cuchiara-Roley as a patsy.

I was on scene shortly after the fire began on Canfield Mountain that Travis Decker set, and the presence of the US Marshall’s Task Force there immediately on scene told me that the shooter had to be a fugitive from justice. The most obvious fugitive from justice in the Wenatchee, Washington area was Travis Decker, having murdered his daughters three months ago. We believe Decker was looking for a dupe to drive him on his escape to Canada.

Decker murdering his daughters, so cute and so beautiful, was a crime that was so heinous that only that type of depraved person could have committed this murderous act against firefighters simply trying to put out a fire.

As I saw Cuchiara-Roley’s body come into the Kootenai County Medical Center, all law enforcement knew the case had been closed with the knowledge that the shoot was dead and acted alone. We did not know at the time that the body being brought to the hospital was the patsy, and now we know that Travis Decker is still on the loose.

Earlier in the afternoon, I was at the Command Center set up at the Coeur d'Alene High School, where trained sharpshooters were on the ground in a helicopter with several helicopters circling the fire on Canfield Mountain behind me. Sheriff Norris gave an impromptu press conference, saying two firefighters were killed and his officers were under fire. He stated that there could have been “one, two, three, or four shooters” at that time.

When Cuchiara-Roley’s body arrived at the Kootenai Hospital, there was no concern of any additional shooters. This could be explained metadata of relief, or the knowledge that Travis Decker was safely making his escape from the mountain. The firefighter murders were being processed on every face there at the hospital, from fire, police, and emergency services, as a sick individual, the murderer, was dead. No additional shooters was the assumption. But we now know that Travis Decker was not dead.

An ad hoc funeral procession was organized for the firefighters shortly after Cuchiara-Foley’s body arrived at the hospital. It is doubtful such a solemn ceremony would be organized with another shooter still loose on the mountain. But the possibility exists that there was an accomplice deliberately allowed to flee the scene as we found several unguarded trailheads at the bottom of the mountain.

Decker had searched on how to relocate to Canada three days after killing his daughters. There are several Canadian Border crossings about one hundred miles from Coeur d’Alene. We believe Decker was searching for a dupe like Cuchiara-Foley to take him to Canada.

Police have not released Travis Decker’s name yet, and refused to do so at a late-night press conference held at the Kootenai County Emergency Service Command Center. The police did admit to contaminating the crime scene by “scooping up the body” with no DNA collection, pictures of crime scene, forensics, or ballistic being collected.

While processing the incomprehensible tragedy of a man murdering his three beautiful daughters, onlookers had to process the senselessness of the murder of two heroic firefighters as well. Grieving families passed by me on the sidewalk as I stood 100 feet from the entrance to the Kootenai County emergency room, each one expressing the same shock and grief as the mother of Travis Deckers’ beautiful little girls.

We are all trying to process the senselessness of this tragedy. We will continue to follow up on this story in Coeur d’Alene as more confirmations of Cuchiara-Foley's body come in from the Coroner located in Spokane, Washington, where Cuchiara-Foley’s body was taken last night. Travis Decker remains on the loose.
