Kimble: They can't,
look, you got, didn't you say you had witnesses?
Witness: Yeah, I, I
got witnesses (inaudible)...
Kimble: Let me tell
you what...
Witness: ...but I'm
saying that's not stopping them from harassing me. Yesterday they
came to my door, they got (inaudible) and I mean.
Kimble: Rod, Rodney
(inaudible) I know you didn't have anything to do with it, but...
Witness: Yeah, but I'm
saying I...
Kimble: ...you're the
easiest target for them to blame. Witness: Well, I can't see that. Like I said, man, I have not been nowhere around Greensboro and you know that as far as this situation, like back here when (inaudible) and you telling me...I mean, I'm just all tore up about this stuff about well at least she's out her misery. Here I am in my misery because of stuff that I haven't done.
Kimble: I know, I, I know, Rodney.
Kimble: Let me tell
you something. They bug the crap outta me. Let me tell you
something, tell 'em you don't wanna talk to 'em and...
Witness: I'm gonna
help to get them off my back or something cause I don't want them to
keep bothering me period.
Kimble: Well, you
wanna talk to, I tell you what, I'm gonna give you a phone number
and you call my lawyer, okay?
Witness: Well, what,
what would your lawyer do for me? That's what I'm saying.
Kimble: He'll just
tell 'em to leave you alone. You have legal rights, okay. If you
don't wanna talk to 'em tell 'em you don't have anything to say to
them and for them to (inaudible) harass you is against your rights.
Witness: Yeah, I mean
but...
Kimble: Where can I
reach you?
Witness: Well, I'm at
my sisters house now, but I'm not gonna be here nuttin' but a few
minutes, and then they ask me about the money you let me borrow and
stuff like that and...
Kimble: No, see,
they're, they're fishing, Rodney. You know, they got nothing, okay.
Witness: Well, I, I
mean, they don't, they're not convincing me of that. I mean, they're
trying to point this thing at me.
Kimble: Rodney, look ,
they tried to stick it, point at me for months. Let me tell you
something, her butthole parents, see her dad (inaudible) he's the
one behind that.
Witness: Yeah, but,
urn, he never bothered me or nothing, you just said that he didn't
like me. Kimble: Well, Rodney, he's prejudice.
Witness: Well, I
don't, I don't have nothing to do with, all I'm saying, how am I
gonna get these people off my...they asking me about all kinds of
stuff and I haven't told them nothing about the stuff that me and
you had talked about or the time that you had said things to me, you
know, none of that.
Kimble: What are you
talking about?
Witness: I'm just
talking about, you know, just like when I had talked to you that day
and I was telling you, uh, how sorry I was or whatever and you
telling me well, at least, uh, she's outta her misery now. Now
you're putting me in my misery.
Kimble: I don't know
what you're talking about, Rodney, about her being in her misery.
What are you talking about?
Witness: Some of the
times that me and you had talked, the last time I had
Kimble: I don't know
what you, look, I miss my wife greatly. I don't you didn't have
anything to do with it. Rodney, you said that you were in Burlington
and have witnesses and they're just trying to squeeze you for
something that you didn't do just like they tried to squeeze me for
something I didn't do.
Witness: Yeah, well
I'm talking, okay, just like the time whenever you was -- telling
me, well, uh, Rodney, wouldn't you like to have a lot of money? I
mean, stuff like that.
Kimble: I don't know
what you're talking about, Rodney.
Witness: Well...
Kimble: Let me tell
you something. Now, I don't talk to nobody about the death of my
wife but my attorney. I miss my wife, but there's nothing I can do
about it. I can't bring her back. I don't know who killed my wife
and that's all I have to say about it.
Witness: Well, like I
said, they're asking all this stuff about, and (inaudible). Have you
ever heard Ted say before that he'd like to have a hit man and stuff
like that. Kimble: I never ever...
Witness: Like I said,
I haven't told them none of this stuff, but I mean far as that you
used to say stuff like, uh, I hate I'm married or I wish I hadn't
got married. I haven't repeated that to nobody, but I'm caught...
Kimble: Rodney, I've
never said those things.
Witness: You've never
said that before?
Kimble: I've never
said those things. I don't know what to think of that stuff.
Witness: You trying to
frame me for some stuff.
Kimble: Rodney, I'm
not framing you for nothing. I told them you're innocent.
Witness: Well, like I
said...
Kimble: I mean, I
believe that.
Witness: Well, like I
said, these people gonna have to get off my back man.
Kimble: Rodney, look
Rodney, I don't know what you're talking about.
Witness: Well...
Kimble: I, I never
said anything negative about my wife. I love her and miss her very
much.
Witness: Well, Ted,
but this was before, man, I mean, you done talked to me...
Kimble: Rodney.
Witness: You done
talked to me about this before and now all a sudden you changed it
around like you trying make me seem guilty.
Kimble: Rodney, look,
let me tell you something. I, I don't believe a word, I don't know
who's put you up to calling my phone. They listen on my phone, they
follow me. Witness: Well, I'll tell you what, you can call me back if you believe that I'm somewhere else because I don't have too long over here. I got to get back to Burlington.
Kimble: Well, let me
tell you something. They listen on my phone, they follow me and
everything else.
Witness: Well, I
didn't know nothing about that. Like I said, they just been
following me for the last few days.
Kimble: Well, let me
tell you something, I don't, you know, I don't know what you're
talking about. I never talked negative about my wife and that's all
I have to say, you know, I'm sure somebody's put you up to talking.
Witness: Well, no,
because, like I said, you can call me here. I'm at my sisters house
now and I'm not gonna be able to be over here long cause Beverly's
on her way to pick me up.
Kimble: Yeah, well, I
mean, I, I don't know what to say, Rodney. I don't, I don't know
what you're talking about.
Witness: Well, I'm,
I'm just saying that if they keep on...
Kimble: Let me tell ya,
if they keep on what?
Witness: I'm saying if
they just keep on harassing me or bothering Beverly I'm gonna have
to go talk to, I guess whoever's involved in this or the SBI or
something cause they even got the SBI asking me questions.
Kimble: I know,
Rodney, let me tell you something, they don't even approach me
anymore because it's against the law. If you tell them you have
legal representation they cannot speak to you.
Witness: Well, like I
said, you might have legal representation, but I don't and I can't,
and I just can't let these people try to put this on me and I don't
nothing about it.
Kimble: That's my
point. I, I mean, you were in Burlington, Rodney. It's because of
you're (inaudible)
Witness: Well, talked
to me something about my past, but that don't have nothing to do
with this. Kimble: That's what my point is. They're going on your past and, and because you're a young black male and you're a easy target.
Witness: Well, like I ...
Kimble: They'll put
you on the stand and try to point the finger at you. Let me tell you
something, I never gave you any money. The only time I loaned you
money was that eighty bucks when those people come up here in front
of witnesses and you said you were (inaudible) and needed child
support money cause they were gonna come arrest you.
Witness: Well, ya'll
always let me borrow money. You know that, but you got these people
thinking that you gave me money.
Kimble: Rodney, let me
tell you something, did you hear what I said? Is your head screwed
on right?
Witness: Man, I am all
tore up all over these people been bothering the hell outta me for
the last couple days.
Kimble: That's because
they don't have anything.
Witness: Well, I don't
know, but like I said, the SBI agent, he's sure convincing me cause
he's all in my shit.
Kimble: Rodney, look,
they're paid to lie, cheat and steal. They've went around telling
people lies about me and everything else.
Witness: Well, why
come they said that you won't even talk to the SBI agent?
Kimble: I won't talk
to none of them. I'm not going to. I tried to help 'em and dam if
they ain't trying to twist things around I said and trying to use it
against me. Let me tell you something, they carried pocket recorders
and record everything you say and will try and turn anything you say
around against you.
Witness: Well, I don't
know nothing about that cause I talked to, uh, SBI agent Mr.
Pendergrass and like I said, he talked to me and he's been in my
shit for the last couple days...
Kimble: Well.
Witness: ...and I'm
gonna help 'em get, I'm gonna help 'em get this shit off me because
I can't understand why you making them think that I got something to
do with this. Kimble: Rodney, Rodney, I have never once said your name.
Witness: Well, like I
said, something is gonna have to be done, man. I don't have too long
because...
Kimble: I don't know
what you want me to do. It's not my fault. I've never said your
name.
Witness: Well, I just
can't understand why come they telling me that won't even talk to
them and this and that and then I can't see that (inaudible)
Kimble: Well, let me
tell you something, you know what the buttholes, a butthole
detective (inaudible) did, he went around, he went and, uh, and told
people that he was convinced and the family was convinced that I
paid you. That's what the detective, a lying detective said.
Witness: Well, I don't
know nothing about that, but...
Kimble: Well, let me
tell ya, I don't even like to talk about this. It's very upsetting,
uh, I miss my wife. I'm just (inaudible) a life again.
Witness: Like I said,
everybody looks at black:..
Kimble: Rodney, I have
not said your name one time, okay.
Witness: Well, I'm
just trying to figure out, I can't see what, I mean, what the
(inaudible) to hide.
Kimble: I don't have
anything to hide. Look, they have tried to turn my life around,
they've tried to lie, cheat and steal anything they could to break
me and I am not to blame.
Witness: Well, like I
said, I just couldn't understand why cause you wouldn't talk to the
SBI agent.
Kimble: They haven't
tried to talk to me, Rodney.
Witness: Well, I can't
understand, but just between me and you, like I said, even before,
even before all this, like I said, when you used to make those
little remarks and stuff. You talked to me before like, oh Lord, I
wish I wasn't married or I wish I had a hit man and stuff like this,
but I just can't see... Kimble: I never said that stuff. I would never say something like that.
Witness: Well, like I
said.
Kimble: I loved my
wife, I can't, I'm offended that you would believe something like
that.
Witness: But I'm
saying that I'm gonna have to get my name cleared out of this.
Kimble: Well, Rodney,
I...
Witness: Like I said,
I don't have no...
Kimble: If you ain't
got nothing to hide, you ain't got nothing to worry about, but I
hope to God that you didn't have something to do with it.
Witness: And you know
that, that's why come I talked to the SBI agent. Kimble: Well, I believe you. Why don't, they don't want to believe you. Do you not have witnesses
where you were?
Witness: Yes, I got
witnesses, but that's another point their investigating is, they're
gonna come back and talk to me again tomorrow or either Monday.
Kimble: Well, my
advise to you is not to talk to 'em.
Witness: Well, like I
said, I don't want...
Kimble: That's what my
lawyer told me. Now, you do what you wanna do.
Witness: Well, I don't
want them to think I got anything to hide.
Kimble: Well, I got
news for ya, I don't, I don't know nothing about the death of my
wife. I had nothing to do with the death of my wife and I loved my
wife very much and I miss her and there's nothing I can do to help
them solve this case. Witness: Well, if Mr. Pendergrass comes back to talk to me, if it gets bad enough and he tries to get me to take a lie detector test, I'm gonna have to try to save my own neck, man, because I can't believe that you just wanna put me out here and you know I had nothing to do with this.
Kimble: Rodney, what
are you talking about? You're, I thing you're being set up, put on
the phone to call me and try and make accusations to me and I'm not
gonna, I'm not gonna (pause) agree to something like that.
Witness: Well, like I
said...
Kimble: Something I
haven't done or done or had done or otherwise.
Witness: Well, the SBI
agent told me that he will be back Monday to talk to me.
Kimble: Well, your
comment needs to be you have representation and do not wish to speak
to him.
Witness: Well, if Mr.
Pendergrass comes Monday, I'm, I'm gonna have to talk to him or
something cause I'm gonna have to get these people off my back.
Kimble: Well, Rodney,
I, I don't know who put you up to this conversation, but I have not
been saying (inaudible)
Witness: See, I'm
staying at my sisters house now.
Kimble: and I've never
said such things about my wife, I loved her very much.
Witness: Well, I'm
just saying because of the stuff that's been going on and then the
SBI agent's talking to me.
Kimble: Rodney, let me
tell you something, you know, haven't you, you told me one time how
you got in trouble selling drugs and everything.
Witness: Yeah, but I
mean, they know all that.
Kimble: That's right.
You told me how you were set up and everything else. They're just
trying to set you up.
Witness: Well, like I
said, I don't nothing about... Kimble: Let me tell you something, they will use, they try and turn things around on me and that's what they'll do to you. You do what you wanna do, but as long as you've got witnesses and you know where you were I believe you. I don't believe you had anything to do with it, but this irradical behavior makes me wonder.
Witness: Well, because
you know that stuff gets me nervous, man, what I supposed to do when
that SBI agent keeps pounding me, coming to my door.
Kimble: Rodney, you're
a grown man.
Witness: Well, like I
said...
Kimble: Rodney...
Witness: ...he said he
would be back Monday.
Kimble: I can't do
nothing about that.
Witness: Well, like I
said, if he...
Kimble: Alright,
Rodney, did you, did you kill my wife?
Witness: You know I
didn't, but I'm saying if Mr. Pendergrass comes and talks to me or
he ask me would I take a lie detector test I'm gonna have to do what
I gotta do.
Kimble: Well, take
one.
Witness: Okay.
Kimble: I, what do I
care?
Witness: Okay.
Kimble: But, uh, as
far as you making representation toward me, I don't know what you're
talking about.
Witness: I'm not, but
I'm saying it sounds like you're trying to throw this on me.
Kimble: Rodney.
Witness: I'm calling
you to find out what's going on.
Kimble: Rodney, look,
they have tapped your phone, they are, are on phone lines and they
are listening to every word you're saying. Witness: Well, I, well, like I said, I'm...
Kimble: Rodney.
Witness: ...upset and
that's why I called you.
Kimble: Rodney, they
have tapped the phone, they harassed you and pushed you so that you
would call me and try and make some conversation with me.
Witness: Well, like I
said, this was last night when I talked to Mr. Pendergrass.
Kimble: Well, it
doesn't matter. Let me tell you something, my lawyers said they've
been on this case for weeks day and night and they have been
harassing you to try and get you to call me and make some kind of
accusation of something they could use (inaudible). I am innocent. I
loved my wife. I miss wife very much and I resent any, uh, negative
accusations about me.
Witness: Well, but
like I said, Mr. ...
Kimble: I have,
Rodney? Rodney, have I ever said anything bad to you, about you?
Witness: Have you ever
said, no, like I said, you treated me good till all of a sudden all
this coming up.
Kimble: Rodney, I
haven't seen you in six months.
Witness: That's what
I'm saying, now all of a sudden all this coming up.
Kimble: What are you
talking, what's coming up?
Witness: All of them
telling me, oh, Rodney, uh, you did it and this and that and I mean
it's like...
Kimble: They're
blaming you to your face and you're talking to them?
Witness: Yeah, I mean,
it's like you telling these people stuff that, you know, that you
know (inaudible)
Kimble: Who's telling
them stuff? Witness: Well, like I said, Mr. Pendergrass said he will be back Monday to talk to me.
Kimble: Rodney, who's
telling you stuff, saying stuff like this?
Witness: That's what
the SBI agent is telling me.
Kimble: Says who's
saying stuff about you?
Witness: Uh, Mr.
Pendergrass is telling me that he's, he's heard this and he's heard
that.
Kimble: Rodney, he
heard it from the family. I have never once slammed you.
Witness: Well. Kimble: I always liked you Rodney, but I, I resent you saying that I've ever said anything negative on
my wife.
Witness: Well, like I
said, Mr. Pendergrass will be back Monday.
Kimble: Well, I, I, I
decline, I have never said anything to you about my wife. I
loved my wife. I miss her and that's all I have to say.
Witness: Well, okay. Kimble: And I haven't ever mentioned your name and I don't know where you would come up with the
idea that I would
blame you.
Witness: Because of
the...
Kimble: You told me
you had...
Witness: ...because of
the SBI agent and they're pretty persistent about this.
Kimble: Rodney, of
course they are. They want to know who killed my wife just as bad as
I do. They are dying because what's happened, the insurance company
is about to settle with me and they're trying desperately to get
some kind of accusations against me to try and keep from the
insurance company from paying me.
Witness: Well. Kimble: The deadline in up. The insurance company has to give me an answer in the few weeks, couple weeks and they are trying desperately to keep me from collecting.
Witness: Well, I...
Kimble: Did you hear
what I said? Witness: Yeah, but I didn't, I didn't know nothing about that, but I'm just saying...
you for a sucker.
Witness: Well, like I
said, this thing just had me shook up and I thought my best bet to
call you and find out what was going on.
Kimble: Well, you, you
should have come seen me or ask me something, but to call me and
make false accusations over the telephone like that, I, I resent
that.
Witness: Well, like I
said, I, I'm, I'm not trying to make no accusations toward you. I'm
just trying...
Kimble: Well, that's
what it sounds like. I mean, you know as well as...
Witness: Well, they
said...
Kimble: ... you've
known me for, you've known me...
Witness: ...well, the
man gonna stand there yesterday and tell me that this thing'll never
go away.
Kimble: That's right,
it's never gonna go away and they've told me that. They harassed the
crap outta me. I got a lawyer and they went away.
Witness: Well, well,
like I said, I'm gonna be back in town Monday and I, I'm making my
business to get past there before I talk to this man, before I talk
to him I'm gonna talk to you cause I need to find out what's going
on, if you're trying to screw me for this.
Kimble: Why would I
blame you for something you didn't do? Witness: Well, like I said, I, before I, I'm not even going to work Monday morning. I'm gonna make my business to come to Greensboro.
Kimble: If you want
to, but I don't, I don't know what to tell ya. All I can say is talk
to, you can talk to my attorney and tell him they're harassing you
trying to blame you and, and (inaudible) and that they're harassing
the crap out of you.
Witness: Well, if I
have to do that then I'll do that then.
Kimble: Do what?
Witness: If I have to
do that I will do that.
Kimble: Let me tell
you something, my lawyers represent me and if they're trying to
falsely accuse you, he doesn't, you're not to talk to them. You
already gave a statement, a signed form statement to my, uh,
detective. Did you not?
Witness: Yes.
Kimble: Then, see,
they have no reason to keep, what they're trying to do is find holes
in your alibi, in your statement to try, to try and prosecute you.
Witness: Yeah, and
then, and then yesterday Mr. Pendergrass bringing up stuff about
Ronnie. He wanted to know about Ronnie, wanted to know about you and
Ronnie, how close are you and Ronnie and this and that and like I
told him, I know Ronnie far as working with him down there and
stuff.
Kimble: (inaudible)
Witness: Well, like I
told him, I know Ronnie as far as working with him. I know sometimes
you and Ronnie might have a little disagreement or something like
that, but far as I know ya'll was brothers.
Kimble: Well, you
know, like I said, uh, Ronnie wasn't even nowhere near there. He was
up here, there's people here that seen him, he was with his family
and that, I ain't worried about that. My point being, Rodney,
they're just trying to squeeze you and trying to get something, I
mean, that, that's just like me, you know, I won't speak to 'em.
Witness: Well... Kimble: I'm not going to.
Witness: Well, he
didn't say nothing to me about that. I thought maybe you had talked
to him and then I thought they would work with you.
Kimble: Rodney, I
haven't talked to 'em because they lied to me so much. They went
around slamming me to all my friends, slandered me and I'm sure
they're listening and all I have to say is that I'm innocent.
Witness: Well.
Kimble: I loved my
wife and I miss her.
Witness: Well.
Kimble: I did not
harm...
Witness: Like I said,
I do plan on being over here Monday before Mr. Pendergrass talks to
me.
Kimble: Well, you
know, like I said, uh, you want me to give you my attorney's phone
number?
Witness: I mean, what,
you could, but what good is that gonna do me? I mean, that's your
attorney.
Kimble: That's my
point. If they're trying, are they not trying to falsely accuse you
and saying that?
Witness: I don't know
what they're doing, like I said, Mr. Pendergrass is persistent about
this case and I don't want to be involved, but I will get your
lawyers number, but like I said, I'm gonna be over here Monday
morning.
Kimble: Well, all I
can tell you is call my attorney and talk to him. There ain't
nothing I can do for ya. I have not mentioned your name and I, I
would think that you know I wouldn't lie to ya.
Witness: Well. Kimble: I mean, are you gonna believe me or you gonna believe them?
Witness: Well, like I
said, I'm just trying to believe whoever pointing, if anybody's
pointing this at me or making it seem like that I got anything to do
with uh-huh, I'm gonna set there Monday and I'm gonna talk to this
man cause I didn't have nothing to do with that and you know that,
but like I said, I'm gonna talk to him Monday morning.
Kimble: Uh, well, I
know what you told me. You told me you were in Burlington and you
had people that knew where you were. I didn't talk to you until a
couple days later.
Witness: Well, like...
Kimble: And you seen
it on T.V. is what you told me.
Witness: Yeah, because
I asked did you need any help or did you want me to come down and
handle things and you said that Gary and Ronnie was doing that, but
they done got beyond that now. They're digging deep, but like I
said, L.
Kimble: Digging for
what?
Witness: Well, like I
said, I do plan on being here Monday.
Kimble: Well, I mean,
I, whatever. I mean, what do want me to do?
Witness: Uh, nothing.
Like I said, I'm gonna come and see you.
Kimble: About what?
Witness: To find out
why would you, I mean if you can't trust me on the phone I need to
talk to you face to face.
Kimble: Well, I don't
know about that, but you can see me if you want. You can talk to my
attorney. He can help you more than I can.
Witness: Well, I will
be there Monday.
Kimble: Whatever.
Witness: Okay. Kimble: I mean, I don't know what you want me to do.
Witness: Well, like I
said, I meet you over here Monday. I just don't know what to tell
this man and then he getting Beverly upset and Beverly come in
yesterday running down to the plant crying and I couldn't figure out
why that, she said, some man, I told her don't know no Mr.
Pendergrass, and then I don't know what to tell this man when I talk
to him about it.
Kimble: Well, why
don't you pick up the phone and call my attorney and talk to him
about it?
Witness: Well, and
then what do I tell this man (inaudible)
Kimble: Now, what I
don't understand is why you're calling and saying I said negative
things about you (inaudible)
Witness: Because I'm
saying when that man came and talked to me yesterday, Ted, they
were, they were aiming straight towards stuff that saying like you
making up on me or you trying to implicate me and whatever.
Kimble: Rodney, Rodney
(pause) I never said your name to nobody.
Witness: Well.
Kimble: Did, did you
hear what I said?
Witness: Well, I hear
you.
Kimble: I, I'll say it
in front of them and I'll say it in front of anybody, but unless
they've got a written out statement that's signed by me and me
standing there saying I signed it they're lying.
Witness: Well, I hear
you.
Kimble: They have lied
to everybody I know.
Witness: Well, like I
said, I hear you. Kimble: All they've done is they've tried to get you to call me and try and drum up some, get something out of you over the telephone. Your phone line is tapped or mine is tapped and their
listening in.
Witness: Well, I
don't... Kimble: My phone's been tapped.
Witness: Well, like I
said, I'm at my sisters house. I don't, I don't know nothing about
that. I can't see any reason why would they tap my sisters phone.
Kimble: No, my phone
is tapped.
Witness: Well, I don't
know nothing about that now.
Kimble: But, urn, I, I
hope, I don't, like I said, I don't care. I am innocent.
Witness: Well.
Kimble: I loved my
wife and I miss her and I've got a sworn statement to you that I
never said anything negative about my wife.
Witness: Well.
Kimble: And now you're
saying that...
Witness: (inaudible)
Kimble: ...comments
like that.
Witness: I haven't
told anything. I'm talking between me and you.
Kimble: Well, you just
announced it.
Witness: The little
statements and stuff that you have made and stuff like that, I'm
convinced, there's stuff that I'm telling you, but I'm saying if
this man come to me Monday with this, I'm gonna have to have
something to tell him because I'm not gonna let this man just back
me up in a corner. No, I'm not gonna do that. Now, like I said, I'm
gonna be here Monday morning and my business is to be at Lyles
before I talk to this man cause I can't understand, you know, why
are you even sitting here now and you telling me, oh, I never said
nothing about...
Kimble: Cause I
haven't and I, I won't.
Witness: Well.
Kimble: I haven't and
I, I haven't never said anything negative about her. I loved my wife
very much. Witness: Well, do you plan on being at the place Monday?
Kimble: Do what?
Witness: Do you plan
on being at work Monday?
Kimble: Yes.
Witness: Well, I will
be there Monday morning.
Kimble: Whatever, I
mean, I don't know what you want me to do.
Witness: Well, I'll be
there Monday morning before I see Mr. Pendergrass.
Kimble: Okay.
Witness: Okay. Kimble: I'll see ya Monday. End of conversation.
