Judge seals decision on Underwood confession
Judge seals decision about slaying suspect’s confession:
It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything about Kevin Ray Underwood. He’s the slimeball from Purcell, Oklahoma who is accused of killing 10-year-old Jamie Rose Bolin so he could consume her flesh. That’s right folks. Kevin the Cannibal. It’s not the Hannibal Lechters you have to worry about, it’s the guy next door.
Anyway a judge has made a decision on whether or not Underwood’s confession will be heard in court but the decision has been sealed. It’s more thasn likely we won’t know the judge’s decision until the trial starts on the 19th.
Prosecutors say that Underwood freely confessed to the murder and gave permission to poice to search his house after he asked for an attorney.
“When a defendant requests an attorney, you don’t have to get them one,” she said. “All that has to be done is to cease interrogation, and that was done.”
That quote was from Assistant District Attorney Susan Caswell.
The defense argues that…
While agents were not required to stop Underwood from talking about the crime after he asked for a lawyer, it does not mean that the testimony can be allowed in court.
Defense attorneys argued that the environment surrounding Underwood was designed to break his will, citing these reasons:
•Not securing Underwood in a holding cell;
•Delays getting booked into jail and being arraigned;
•Asking Underwood to sign a search waiver after he asked for a lawyer.
Defense lawyers argue that when someone invokes their constitutional rights, that means officers can’t question them any further and they can’t ask the suspect for permission to search their house.
Excuse me while I rant for just a moment.
How in the hell do these criminal defense attorneys sleep at night? This isn’t ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ we’re talking about. Underwood admits that he murdered a 10-year-old red headed girl with freckles and glasses so he could cannibalize her corpse. Her body was found in his apartment. In my opinion some criminals are beyond defense and Underwood is one of them. As far as I’m concerned he should be fed to a pack of wild dogs for what he did. Yet these attorneys want to weasel their way to an acquittal knowing full well what he’s guilty of. Maybe selling your soul makes it so you don’t require sleep. Maybe criminal defense attorneys like this are nothing more than the undead. The fact that this scumbag has even the slightest chance of being released scares me more than any vampire or zombie movie.
Anyway, the trial ill take place in Norman, Oklahoma due to a change of venue request. I hope the change of scenery doesn’t help his case at all.
