3 Theories That Explain What Happened Before John Wheeler's Mysterious Death

Another possibility is that Wheeler got mugged. While this theory is credible, there are a few issues with it. First of all, in most cases of strong-arm robberies, the assailant leaves the scene of the crime without doing anything to hide the victim. Furthermore, when detectives found Wheeler, he still had expensive belongings such as his Rolex watch and West Point class ring. It's unlikely that someone attacking Wheeler for money would miss these belongings.
