00:00:00
what do you believe happened on May 28th 2014 well the only thing I can tell you
00:00:06
that we believed happened is that Leo had keys to the home uh to do maintenance work and so forth that he
00:00:12
let himself in um he probably thought that Dr Schwarz had already left for the hospital uh and Dr Schwarz had not He
00:00:22
Came Upon Dr Schwarz Dr Schwarz probably said what the hell are you doing in my home uh and uh at that point in time Leo
00:00:31
who was there to commit the burglary to make the theft had no choice but to kill
00:00:35
the only witness that could finger him and killed Dr Schwarz Leo claims though he was in in a financially good place
00:00:44
that he was making about $130,000 a year that he didn't need money why would he be going over to do
00:00:51
some petty theft over at the Schwarz house well rich people steal from department stores uh no matter how much
00:01:00
he was paid he knew that there was Cash inside that house uh it was ready cash it was I'll call it vas cash uh you know
00:01:09
maybe he was told uh by the person that cleaned that house uh what he could get from it I don't know uh I know Leo
00:01:16
denies that but uh he certainly is the killer why do you believe Leo straga murdered Dr Steven
00:01:24
Schwarz you know there there's a couple theories as to why Leo straga might have
00:01:29
killed Dr Schwarz one could be that he went in for other motives which was to take jewelry and money and happened upon
00:01:36
him and felt he had no choice another is he could have seen his gravy train coming to an end it was Rebecca Schwarz
00:01:43
who did most of the overseeing of Leo straga she's the one who provided for his work she was very generous with him
00:01:53
I think that because she was working so hard for Dr Schwarz to be able to retire
00:01:57
Leo saw that as a threat that he was going to be home more he was going to be overseeing it more and he was not as
00:02:03
liberal with the money as Rebecca was to have this work done so Leo stroga had no
00:02:10
criminal record is that true that's my understanding he had a relationship with the Schwarz family of more than 15 years
00:02:17
right correct by according to family members friends he had a loving relationship with this with this couple
00:02:25
that Rebecca referred to him at times as son and he would call her mom correct he had a good life in
00:02:33
Florida give me a case that he would want to suddenly turn into this vicious killer doesn't make sense well you're
00:02:40
assuming that he went there to commit that murder uh and he may very well have done it as Mrs rivini indicated that he
00:02:46
felt that Dr schwarz's retirement might jeopardize that 130,000 but he also could have happened
00:02:53
on Dr Schwarz and I'm not I'm not discounting that that he went over there to um uh to commit the theft and that Dr
00:03:00
Schwarz had not left I think normally speaking Dr Schwarz would would have left by then to go to the hospital he
00:03:07
was obviously on his way out because he was dressed just like he normally does to go to the hospital so Leo may have
00:03:12
come upon him and uh had no choice but to kill the witness
