Case narrative

Trivia

West is believed to be the only member of the "Bowling Green Seven" that was able to make bail. West is the only predator from the Bowling Green sting whose uncut police interrogation video has not been found beyond clips featured on the show, although the audio that was tape recorded inside the room at the time does exist and has been released online. The reason the full video footage hasn't been recovered remains unknown.
