Well, they contaminated horribly a photo lineup they're about to do with the victim, is what they did. And looking at the photo, I do not understand at all why they would see that photo and think, that looks like the rapist, because the photo is terrible. The man turns out to have blonde hair. You can't tell in the photo. The photo was taken, like, the same day as the assault happened.
and in the paper the same day, and it says, this man at this apartment, and I guess they noticed how close it was, but I don't understand. This is not a very credible way to develop a lead.
She stated that she had closed up the body shop and she was getting into her car after work and she had seen a man walking through the vacant lot that was just north of Fairgreen Apartments. She got into her car and was having trouble getting it started and The man walked up to her car and he had a knife in his hand and asked her if she needed help with her car. And she told him no.
And then he grabbed at her. So she took a swing at him. And then she reached for underneath the front seat of her car and told him, I have a gun and acted as if she was going to grab one. She didn't really have one. She just wanted to scare him. And she did scare him away. And she described him...
as a white male, thin build, 130 pounds, about 5'8", 5'9", with a gold t-shirt, Levi's, a light colored baseball cap, and blonde hair. And this is a same clothing description really as Jane Doe described the rapist. This would have happened right before the rape and in the same area. So this kind of corroborates what he looked like
Detective Price claimed that when that assault happened, she refused to file charges, but the manager of the body shop filed charges on David. And that manager is the one who reported being assaulted first.
He was asked, quote, Tim answered no, and the polygrapher's opinion was that Tim was being truthful.
I have photographs of Tim from that morning when he initially came to the police department. And Tim does not match the description of the attacker at all. Tim had like perm, short, curly blonde hair. He was wearing glasses. He's definitely more of a stocky build, not a slender or slim build that is described by the witness. They said that that man had straight brown hair that was kind of longer.
So I really don't think Tim was the one that actually did it.
She did make statements that he had long, straight pubic hair. After three and a half years of marriage to David, she left him. And she had heard from a friend that David's brother, Terry, believed David murdered Deborah. And she told detectives she believed David was capable of committing the murder.
And they stated a woman had been at a bar on 2nd Street in Odessa and an intoxicated man named Ricky started crying and told her, quote, you know that girl that was killed on Oakwood a couple of years ago? I'm the one who killed her, end quote. And the man then sat his full beard down on the bar and just left.
The woman was extremely afraid of the man, and that was why she would not report this to the police herself. So this is kind of just an anonymous tip. We don't know Ricky's last name. I don't know what Ricky looks like. And yeah, even the person that was reporting this to police was afraid as well. They didn't give their name. They didn't give any information.
And he pretty much just said he didn't know anything about Deborah's murder and that he would not submit to a polygraph again because he was in poor health. And he was. He had just gotten out of the hospital when they spoke to him.
Both Peggy and Chris told the detective that David was a good man and they should leave him alone.
So these are more for y'all to have like sentimentally and things. But if there's a man or something that you recognize in the picture that I probably don't know who they are, if you recognize them and could let me know, that could possibly help. I think this one's like a birthday party though. I recognize Bert in one of the pictures from that other picture of y'all together.
Yeah, this looked like a parade or something.
Oh, cool.
on the truck? Yeah.
Oh, she, okay, she's in the parade.
I have to remain open to any possibility right now just because there's not enough evidence pointing either way. However, I do really wonder if she was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. I mean, there was a lot going on in that neighborhood at the time. There was a lot of indecent exposure reports. You know, a woman had been raped on campus just a few days before.
