YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWilliam Zelenski is accused of killing Ryelee Manente over an alleged reptile theft in Waupaca County, Wisconsin, back in October 2020. Investigators claim Zelenski went to police after someone stole reptiles, guns, and alcohol from his home. Of the reptiles stolen, one was a lizard worth $17,000 and a crocodile worth $2,000 — along with a boa constrictor and pythons. Zelenski got word Manente might have been involved in the theft, so he confronted him about it, according to investigators. Manente’s mother told detectives her son took off his shirt and said he wanted to fight Zelenski — so Zelenski grabbed a gun and shot Manente, according to the arrest affidavit.
