Kiely Rodni's BF gets DEATH THREATS despite providing alibi to cops as conspiracy theories run amok
TRUCKEE, CALIFORNIA: Even after providing an alibi to the cops, Kiely Rodni's boyfriend is receiving death threats due to the wild and unconfirmed murder conspiracy theories circulating online, The Sun reported. Rodni, 16, went missing after an end-of-school party in Truckee, California, and was found dead in her submerged car in Prosser Reservoir, almost two weeks later.
Since her death, various rumors about foul play have been circulated by the online sleuths and unfortunately, most of them are pointing toward her boyfriend Jagger Westfall, suggesting that he could have been involved with the disappearance and then the murder of Kiely Rodni. "Early in the investigation, our detectives made contact with Jagger Westfall. After a detailed interview, he was ruled out as a person of interest," Nevada County Sheriffs told the outlet.

The accusations were fuelled after Adventures with Purpose (AWP), the dive group who discovered Kiely's body using sonar technology, spoke to a witness named Nick. The man told in a YouTube video that he saw her being with a teen which fits the description of Westfall and also claimed to have helped her with her car. The person said that he could not remember the day he helped Kiely but alleged it may have been the morning after she was last seen alive at the party near Truckee Family Campground.

The witness also did not name the company he provided roadside assistance for and all his claims are considered to be baseless as no CCTV footage or other witnesses have come forward regarding the same.
The 18-year-old boyfriend of the deceased girl has voluntarily spoken with law enforcement and provided proof of his movements during the time Rodni disappeared. "Jagger was in Napa Valley until 8 am on the Saturday. He didn't get back to Truckee until noon and then joined the search to look for Kiely," a source told the outlet. "He was misquoted in an article saying he was at the party with Kiely, he was never there, he now doesn't want to talk publicly. He has proof of him not being in the area and has spoken with police and the FBI and given them the information. Jagger has time and location stamps the night of the party and into the next day, the police are not interested in him, he is not a part of the investigation," the source added.
The source further added that Westfall "doesn't understand the hate" and had to limit comments on social media platforms to avoid getting abused by trolls linking him to the death of Rodni. "It's a lot for him to deal with as a young teen, everyone close to him knows he wasn't involved, and he's trying to laugh it off, but it's tough as he's also grieving," they said. "He gets direct messages, comments and tags, texts and calls and emails all the time, accusations, death threats and people telling him to kill himself, about everything you can think of."
The couple reportedly ended their relationship some time ago before Rodni's death but they kept in touch with each other and often went on dates in the weeks leading up to her tragic disappearance on August 6. Countless YouTubers have come up with various theories related to the death of Kiely Rodni. Even the dive group used the title 'How We FOUND Kiely Rodni: MURDER or ACCIDENT?' as they also waded in on the rumors.
