Ex-Congressional Candidate Daniel Rodimer Surrenders to Las Vegas Police for Murder Charge

Former congressional candidate and professional wrestler Daniel Rodimer turned himself in to Las Vegas police after an arrest warrant was issued for a charge of open murder in connection with the death of 47-year-old Christopher Tapp. He was released on a $200,000 bond and is due back in court. The Clark County Coroner's office ruled Tapp's death a homicide due to blunt force trauma to the head, and a criminal complaint alleges Rodimer killed Tapp in a willful, deliberate, and premeditated manner. Rodimer had three prior arrests in Florida on suspicion of assault but no convictions, and his now-wife had previously called 911 alleging domestic violence incidents.
