"Tell what happened on the night of August 11 and morning of the 12th." "I went to bed early. Karen Hansen had not come down by midnight. When I opened the door, I saw why. Mr. Turner and Mr. Singleton were there, drinking." The defense objected to this but was overruled by the court.

He wanted a chance to get at him." |
