(Update, Ada Township, November 30, 2004, 7:46 p.m.) Authorities have released the telling 911 tapes from The CyberNET Group CEO Barton Watson on the night he committed suicide during a standoff with police at his home.
Excerpt 1 of the 911 conversation
Excerpt 2 of the 911 conversation
Brad Edwards report
The tapes contain two hours of conversations between the embattled leader and negotiators, negotiations that stopped when Watson shot and killed himself last week.
On that night, the pressure was mounting for Watson to answer questions as his business was folding, creditors were looking for millions of dollars and a hundred plus workers were told they were out of work.
Dispatcher: "911 emergency."
Watson: "Hello."
Dispatcher: “Hi, 911 emergency. What's your emergency?"
Watson: "Well there's a gun in my mouth."
