On the day Oland was killed, building owner John Ainsworth described hearing an exceptionally loud thumping sound, "like somebody banging on a wall", coming from his office as well as a "shuffling" sound from the same direction.
The warrants also outline testimony from the last person to see Oland alive who's considered the prime suspect in the case. It's believed the suspect, who had a strained relationship with Oland, lied about what he was wearing the day of Richard Oland's death. When seen entering Oland's office, he was carrying a red bag containing an unknown object or objects. Oland had lent the suspect $85,000 to pay for a divorce, and $500,000 for a mortgage.
Richard Oland's wife, Constance, describes him to police as being verbally and emotionally abusive. The documents also show Oland conducting a long-term extramarital affair with a woman named Diana Sedlacek and advised his children to "handle it" without telling their mother. His daughter, Lisa Bustin, told police he expected everyone to perform at "150%" all the time and was extremely difficult to please.
The warrants also include a description of the items seized during various searches including cell phones, lap tops, and clothing.
