The preliminary examination of Dale Warner, a Lenawee County man accused of killing his wife Dee Warner, has shed light on the financial side of their relationship. On Thursday, business finances took center stage in the testimony as Dee’s son, Zack Bock, provided insight into their financial situation. Bock revealed that some of their businesses were facing significant losses and that they often struggled to meet payroll.
Despite extensive cross-examination, Bock maintained that he had no knowledge of his mother’s disappearance in April 2021. However, it is known that Dee had discussed finances with her son just before she vanished, particularly regarding businesses that were solely in her name. In a text message sent the day before she went missing, Dee expressed her intention to transfer ownership of these businesses to her son. This meant that he would become the sole owner of the trucking businesses in question.
The case will continue with more testimony on Friday, and June 6 has been set as the next scheduled date if the proceedings are not concluded. The ongoing investigation involves the disappearance of Dee Warner and the financial intricacies that surround the case.
