Alvin Melleth

Basically, what he said was El Paso was trying to pin it on him.

David Wood insisted he had nothing to do with those murders.

George thought maybe he didn't, maybe he did.

Either way, he didn't really care.

Eventually, George and David Wood were separated, moved to different facilities hundreds of miles apart.

One day, George says he's in the prison library, ready to go to lunch, when two officers come in and tell him to pack his stuff.

A few hours later, George finds himself in a holding cell in the El Paso County Jail.

Two other guys join him in there.

George recognizes them both as guys who had celled with David Wood.

And one of them says to the group, they have an opportunity.

They can all get money, maybe, or less prison time.

All they have to do is snitch on David Wood.

Soon enough, they're escorted out of the cell and into a car.

And George says that's when the cops start rolling out the red carpet.

But he sits tight.

George says they're taken to a hamburger joint for lunch and then, ultimately, to a police station.

The guys are offered coffee, snacks, cigarettes, and then they're ushered into a room with detectives.

They're going to tell the police that David Wood confessed to multiple murders.

But George is sure these guys don't actually know anything about David Wood.

He would have heard about it already.
