Guilford County Sheriff's Department
Supplemental Report
Incident Number: 951009027
2. Victim's Name: PATRICIA GAIL KIMBLE
3. Day/Date/Time of Report: Tue Aug 13 14:43:08 EDT 1996
4.. Narrative: WHILE GOING THROUGH MY NOTES I FOUND WHERE TED KIMBLE TOLD ME THAT THE CABINETA IN THE KITCHEN OF HIS HOUSE THAT THE MICROWAVE WAS IN HAD BEEN INSTALLED THE WEEK BEFORE. HE SAID THAT HE GAVE PATRICIA THE CABINET FOR HER BIRTHDAY AND THAT A GUY NAMED RON CATESB HAD INSTALLED THE CABINET. HE FURTHER SAID THAT THE STATE TROOPER THAT LIVED UP ON HIGHWAY 22 KNEW RON CATES.


I CONTACTED RON CATES AT HIS RESIDENCE ON 01AUG96 AT 1645 HRS. RON SAID HE DID NOT DO CABINETWORK, NOR DID HE KNOW TED OR PATRICIA OTHER THAN TED STOPPING HIM WHEN HE WAS COMMING OUT FROM HIS AUNT AND UNCLES PROPERTY FROM DEER HUNTING. TED STOPPED HIM AND ASKED HIM NOT TO PARK IN THE ROAD THAT HE MIGHT WANT TO GET HIS BOAT OUT. THE ROAD IS THE RIGHT-A-WAY TO THE MAIRON PROPERTY THE MAIRONS ARE HIS AUNT AND UNCLE AND THE PROPERTY LAYS BEHIND THE KIMBLE RESIDENCE. RON SAID THAT TED MUST HAVE HIM MIXED UP WITH SOMEONE ELSE, THAT HE HAS NEVER PUT CABINETS IN OR HAS NEVER BEEN IN THEIR HOUSE FOR THAT MATTER.
 

I ASKED RON IF HE KNEW TROOPER WADSWORTH WHO LIVES A FEW MILES AWAY ON HIGHWAY 22 AND HE SAID THAT WADSWORTH WAS RELATED TO HIM. I TOLD HIM THAT TED HAD TOLD ME THAT TROOPER WADSWORTH KNEW HIM. AND RON STATED THAT HE HAD NO IDEA HOW TED WOULD HAVE KNOWN THIS, THAT HE DIDN'T TELL HIM NOTHING ABOUT WADSWORTH AND THAT THE ONLY THING THAT HE TOLD TED WAS HIS AUNT AND UNCLE OWNED THE PROPERTY BEHIND HIM AND THAT HE DEER HUNTED THERE EVERY YEAR. RON STATED THAT THIS WAS SOMETIME IN SEPTEMBER OR 1995 THAT TED STOPPED HIM WHEN HE WAS COMMING OUT. HE SAID THAT IT WAS HOT THAT DAY AND THAT. IT WAS NOT A GOOD DAY FOR HUNTING AND THAT HE DECIDED TO LEAVE EARLY.

5. Reporting Officer/Assignment: DET. J.D. CHURCH

AChurch is so stupid!  Spring's cabinet put the cabinet in.

BRon Cate's is someone who hunts on the property behind mine.  I told Church this the week of Patricia's death.
