Then she told me she couldn't hardly drive because her eye was messed up. So one night, one day, I played like I couldn't park the car right. I kept parking it sideways. She got kind of upset, said I didn't know how to drive. I said "Her. She can do it." She parked the car straight.

“Jack”:

No, sir.

Did Miss Dorsey ever tell you any names of some girls that Sam was dating?

Okay. Very good. Do you know anything about another girl that was found? This was a white girl. She was found up in Gainesville on September 12th. Okay? She was a white girl. She was found with no clothes on. She was strangled.

“Jack”:

How was she raped?

Speaker 1:

Excuse me?

“Jack”:

Was she raped or anything?

Speaker:

I don't know if she was raped. Why would that matter?

“Jack”:

Because that man who was in the cell with me, they said Mr. McDowell done come in here for his meals, could have passed a little bit. They say he raped about six or seven girls, prostitutes. They say he raped her from behind. They said he left scratches all in their face and on their neck. And he say he had against them for money. And they told him he was from Mobile because the Pinto had Alabama tags.

“Jack”:

Yes.

“Jack”:

He knew all the girls that did that, that happened to them.

Speaker 2:

Now, do you know anything about this at all personally though?

“Jack”:

No, sir.

Speaker 2:

Were you with anybody when they picked a girl up and carried her out there?

“Jack”:

No, sir.

Has anybody told you that that went out there?

“Jack”:

No, sir.
