Guilford County Sheriff's Department
Supplemental Report
1. Incident Number: 951009027
2. Victim's Name: PATRICIA GALE KIMBLE
3. Day/Date/Time of Report: Thu Nov 2 08:01:30 EST 1995
4. Narrative: ON NOVEMBER 1, 1995 I SPOKE WITH TED KIMBLE BY PHONE AT HIS WORKPLACE AND ASKED HIM ABOUT THE TWO GUN PERMITS HE BOUGHT ON 02-01-95. HE STATED THAT HE ALWAYS BOUGHT A GUN PERMIT WHEN THE GUN SHOW WAS IN TOWN AND THAT HE THOUGHT HE HAD BOUGHT A .38 CAL AND A .32 CAL. AND HIS PARENTS HAS THEM NOW. HE ALSO TOLD ME THAT HE HAD PREVIOUSLY BOUGHT A .38 CAL PISTOL AT SPORTS UNLIMITED AND GAVE IT TO A FORMER GIRL FRIEND KIM PALMER. KIM GOES TO SOUTH ELM BAPTIST CHURCH ALSO. ((((*** I SPOKE WITH KIM PALMER AT 852-3572 HOME, 230-8640 PAGER, AND SHE SAID THAT SHE DID DATE TED FOR ABOUT FOUR MONTHS BACK IN 1992 IN THE WINTER MONTHS. SHE SAID THAT HE WAS BACK AND FORTH WITH PATRICIA AND HER COUSIN AND THAT SHE HAD SPOKEN TO PATRICIA AND HAD TOLD HER THAT SHE DIDN'T WANT TO GET INTO THE TRIANGLE AND COULD SEE THAT HE LIKED PATRICIA AND HER COUSIN MORE THAN HER, SO SHE JUST DRIFTED OUT OF THE PICTURE. ***))))... TED BECAME SOMEWHAT UPSET WITH ME ASKING ME ABOUT^A THE GUNS AND WANTED TO KNOW WHAT IT HAD TO DO WITH HIS WIFES DEATH. I EXPLAINED THAT I NEEDED TO KNOW EVERYONE HE HAD COME IN CONTACT WITH THAT MIGHT HAVE ANYTHING AGAINST PATRICIA FOR ANY REASON.
TED CALLED ME BACK APPROXIMATELY THIRTY MINUTES LATER AND HIS FIRST QUESTION WAS "IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANT TO ASK ME". I WAS NOT EXPECTING THE CALL OR A QUESTION LIKE THIS SO I ASKED HIM WHAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT. HE SAID THAT HE HAD TALKED TO HIS ATTORNEY MR BOUDEN AND HIS ATTORNEY TOLD HIM TO NOT TALK TO ME UNLESS HE WAS PRESENT, THAT IN LEGAL TERMS I MIGHT BE TRYING TO GET ENOUGH EVIDENCE AGAINST HIM TO CHARGE HIM WITH HIS WIFES DEATH. TED USED THE WORD ENTRAPPED AND I TOLD HIM TO TELL HIS ATTORNEY THAT THERE WAS NO WAY I WAS TRYING TO TRAP ANYONE THAT I WAS AFTER THE FACTS THAT I INTENDED TO GET THEM TO FIND OUT WHO KILLED HIS WIFE.^B
I TOLD TED THAT IF HE DIDN'T KILL HIS WIFE THAT HE DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO WORRY ABOUT AND I ASKED HIM "DID YOU KILL YOUR WIFE" AND HE SAID, "NO", AND I TOLD HIM THAT IF HE HAD NOT DONE ANYTHING THAT HE DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO WORRY ABOUT AND I DIDN'T THINK HE NEEDED AN ATTORNEY BECAUSE HE HAD NOTHING TO HIDE. I ALSO TOLD HIM THAT IT WAS MY EXPERIENCE THAT IF ANYONE IN AN INVESTIGATION WAS GUILTY OF ANYTHING THAT THEY WOULD GO TO AN ATTORNEY AND THAT I WANTED TO FIND OUT WHO KILLED HIS WIFE AND NEEDED HIS HELP TO DO SO AND AGAIN I TOLD HIM THAT IF HE HAD NOT DONE ANYTHING THAT HE DIDN'T NEED AN ATTORNEY PRESENT WHEN I TALKED TO HIM.

^AChurch was drilling the crap out of me as if I were lying to him or holding info from him.

^BYou know that's a lie.  Church was going around telling lies about me.  Everytime we spoke he was calling me a lier or making accusations like I can't verify this or that.
