Robert Wone's Suspected Killers: Where Are They Now?

The Washington Blade follows up its piece on the 10-year anniversary of the murder of Robert Wone, whose polyamorous suspected killers have never been convicted of a single crime.

On June 29, 2010, D.C. resident and prominent attorney Joseph Price, his domestic partner Victor Zaborsky, and their friend, housemate and reported lover Dylan Ward were found not guilty of charges linking them to the August 2006 murder of Washington attorney Robert Wone. The three had been indicted in 2008 on charges of evidence tampering, obstruction of justice and conspiracy to obstruct justice in connection with the Wone case, but no murder charges were brought due to lack of sufficient evidence, police said. Wone, a friend of the three men who was straight, was found stabbed to death in the guest bedroom of the townhouse where the three men lived near Dupont Circle. Wone had been spending the night there after working late at his D.C. office, the men told police. The men also told police they believed an intruder killed Wone after entering the house through an unlocked back door while they were asleep in their respective bedrooms. Homicide detectives and prosecutors disputed that claim, saying forensic evidence showed Wone appeared to have been immobilized by a paralytic drug, sexually assaulted, and stabbed three times in the chest and abdomen with no signs of a struggle.

A Decade Later, Robert Wone Murder Remains a Mystery

Nice piece in The Washington Blade about the still-unsolved murder of Robert Wone, the married (to a woman) man who spent the night in the house of a college friend who was in a polyamorous relationship with two other men and wound up dead. 

On the evening of Aug. 2, 2006, Washington attorney Robert Wone arrived at the townhouse of his longtime college friend Joe Price after spending all day and part of the evening working late at his downtown office at Radio Free Asia. Price, a gay rights attorney associated with the LGBT group Equality Virginia, and his partner Victor Zaborsky and their roommate Dylan Ward – who were also friends of Wone — said later that they invited Wone to spend the night in their guest bedroom so he wouldn’t have to drive home to Oakton, Va., where he and his wife, Katherine Wone, lived. Wone, whose wife says he was straight, would have a chance to visit with his friends and avoid having to drive home late at night only to have to return to D.C. early in the morning for work, the gay men have said.

Until someone cracks, we may never know what happened that fateful night. That Joe Price was running an ad for someone to play with him and his dom (roommate Dylan Ward) always stood out to me. If people have a theory at all, it's usually that Dylan acted alone. But there's also the possibility that Wone was closeted and died during a sexual encounter that suddenly got more violent than he bargained for -- and that Joe wanted to protect his friend's secret so opted for this cockamamie intruder story to protect wife Kathy and the Wone family.

Returning to the scene of the crime in 2010.
