I then walked over to a part of Beef Island where I had worked before with
OBEL PENN. I met people in the house and I asked for a drink of water and
they gave it to me. They were White people. I then saw a grey jeop with an
Immigration fellow and two other people in it and the Immigration fellow
called me and I ran in through the bushes. This was around 3.00 pa. on the
19.1.77. I had stayed at the Airport from minutes to 10.00am. until minutes
to 12.00 Mid-day when I went up where I had worked. When I ran through the
bushes I climbed a tree. The Immigration fellow saw me up in the tree,,1
,he
alled me down and I came down. They took me to the jeep and took me to
Police Headquarters. They gave me three fist in my face. At about 10.40 am. 10
on the 20.1.77 the Police Officer who took down my statement showed me a
folded steel knife, and that was the knife I used to stab Miss EVELYN.
same Policeman also showed me a string and that was the same string I used to
tie Miss EVELYN'S neck. I now know the Policeman's name to be Sgt. Malone.
