Boney's Video Confession:

Boney Confession

As noted previously, Charles Boney voluntarily submitted to many different interviews with the police, media, and the defense from the time he was first interviewed on February 17, 2005 until he was finally arrested on March 4, 2005. Boney was talkative and was actually soliciting others to hear his version of the events. One must ask why a suspect in a triple murder case was so eager to talk.

The first reason is that Charles Boney can't help himself. He has to be the one in charge. He has to control the interview and he has to manipulate the conversation. It is ingrained in his very psyche that his lies must be believed, and the only way to do that is to repeat them over and over. He is, according to many, a classic anti-social personality. Who is such a person? One whose traits include the manipulation of others, a smooth personality in order to conduct such manipulation, a grandiose belief in himself, lack of responsibility, lies, more lies, lack of empathy, no remorse for his actions and the glue that holds such a personality together is that he has absolutely no conscience.

Boney told Carl Colvin that his conscience already held three murders. That wasn't an attempt by him to salve his conscience, but rather him bragging about his exploits. After all, he's smarter than others. This was a man who had gotten away with the most heinous crime in the Louisville Metropolitan area for almost five years. He had to tell others that he was a person not to be reckoned with, and that he was smarter than the police because he hadn't been caught.

The other reason why Boney was so talkative was that he had been given a pass by the police and prosecution. After 22 hours of being interviewed and failing a polygraph, they let him go, told him to simply check in with them, and then the authorities told the public that his story had checked out and that it didn't "make sense" that he was involved in the crime. That certainly empowered him to talk that much more.

It therefore wasn't a surprise when he agreed to speak with the defense investigator on February 26, 2005. When viewing this short video, remember the type of person that constitutes Charles Boney. He appears to be calm, responsive, and wants to be seen as cooperative. He can't shake the other aspects of his personality, however. He has the absolute need to tell someone, in his own sly and crafty way, that he was the one responsible for the crime. He was bragging about killing Kim, Brad and Jill.
