ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- Jail house video released on Saturday is revealing new details about a man charged in a high profile Orange County murder.
James Ward is accused of killing his wife in their high-end Isleworth home.
The video is of a jail house visit with Ward's daughter and sister in law.
Ward was in good spirits for his first video visit on Friday. The man who's accused of murdering his wife Diane in their million dollar Isleworth home was doing a dance and strip tease for his daughter Mallory Ward and his sister in law Paula Saare.
The two have made three visits to Ward without saying a word to the media.
“It means so much for me to see yours and Mallory's face,” said James Ward.
Saare was quick to remind Ward that they were being recorded.
Monday, Orange County investigators say Ward told 911 that he had shot and killed his wife in their bedroom. He later changed to his story and said it was suicide.
Ward and his family spent most of the time catching up and talking about people who would be good character witnesses. But Ward did mention his wife.
“You know we both had a wonderful person in Mom and I can't believe she's not here,” said James Ward.
The real estate developer is in jail on no bond. But he made several statements saying that wouldn't last for long.
“Hopefully I will be out of this place next week,” said James Ward.
