STATEMENT OF JOE, “THE FIREMAN” (DEFENSE WITNESS)
I, Joe Fireman, state:
I live and work in Glenville. I was coming to the Hole to pick up Scott. He gets off at 2.am. We were going to go back to my place to shoot some pool, have a couple of beers and watch sports center on ESPN. When I parked my truck and went to get out I heard a man yelling coming from inside. I looked in the window and saw a man with a broken beer bottle in his hand and yelling at Scott. I had never seen this person before, but he was visibly angry.
When I went into the bar the man stated, “pay me or I will kill you”. I then saw Scott point a gun at the man and pulled the trigger. There was blood everywhere. A woman was bent down screaming, “he is dead”, “I am calling 911”. Scott was really shaken and scared. He was crying.
I have known Scott since grade school. He is not a murderer. He is just a drunk.
I have made this statement of true mind.
