According to police reports, Ajayi allegedly tried in early April to hire an independent contractorto construct a secret, soundproof roombeneath his front porch.
The contractor, Brian Wolf, toldthe Deseret Newshe ultimately turned down the job after Ajayi asked if hooks could be installed in the walls of the hidden space.
“As soon as he said he wanted the hooks above head height, I was like, ‘Why do you need big hooks up there?'” recalled Wolf of his April 4 meeting with Ajayi. “And he said it was to hang a wine rack. I said, ‘Well, I can hang a wine rack and make it look a lot nicer than these big, gaudy hooks.'”
Ajayi has not yet entered a plea on any of the charges. He is being held without bond. A court-appointed attorney did not immediately return PEOPLE’s call for comment.
