If you remember, Jannetty’s original post saw him claim that somebody tried to sexually assault him at the age of 13 after Marty had bought weed from the man. From there, Marty alluded to having killed the guy and dispatching of the body in the Chattahoochee River, while also suggesting this wasn’t the only person he’s killed, and throwing in homophobic and racist language in his post.

It was certainly an eye-raising diatribe from the one-time WWE Intercontinental Champion, and there was clearly a lot that needed to be addressed should this post be truthful – as shown by the Columbus Police Department saying that they will be following up on all of this.
