:16:00
on North Main Street, here in Vidor.
:16:03
David abandoned the vehicle
and ran on foot.
:16:08
We started getting
little bits of information, though...
:16:11
that David had been involved in a
shooting in Dallas of a police officer.
:16:16
We would always get
third-hand rumor, fourth-hand rumor.
:16:20
So we went back to a few of his other
comrades in crime, we could call them.
:16:25
They said,
"We thought he was just bragging.
:16:28
"We didn't really take him seriously."
:16:30
Sitting down, watching the
evening news, well, the night news.
:16:33
My father was asleep on the couch.
:16:36
Heard somebody knocking at the door.
It was David Harris.
:16:40
I let him in. He came in.
:16:41
He was standing there beside my chair...
:16:43
and a news broadcast advertised
about a police officer shot in Dallas.
:16:49
Right then and there he starts
swearing up and down.
:16:51
He says, "I swear to God,
I shot that fucking pig."
:16:55
He says, "I'm the one that killed him."
:16:57
Somewhere around Dallas,
they got pulled over.
:16:59
I think he said because
they were checking out a stolen car.
:17:03
He said that the cop had pulled him over...
:17:07
and walked up to the window.
:17:09
When the cop came,
he rolled down the window...
:17:11
and just pulled the gun up and shot him.
:17:13
He swore up and down.
:17:15
He made a big scene about it.
Jumped up and down...
:17:18
trying to get anybody and everybody...
:17:20
to listen to him.
"Yeah, I shot that son of a gun."
:17:23
And everybody said,
"Sure you did, David. Sure."
:17:26
"I swear to God I killed that cop."
:17:29
I asked him if he'd been to Dallas.
He denied having been to Dallas.
:17:34
I asked him if he'd been involved
in any shooting...
:17:36
or knew anything about a shooting,
and he denied that to the end.
:17:41
Which is fairly consistent with David.
Even if he had some involvement...
:17:44
his first way that he always treats you,
he would deny.
:17:48
Then, if he felt as though
you really knew he had done it...
:17:51
then he would be truthful with you.
:17:53
He give me a pistol, a.22 caliber pistol.
:17:56
He showed it to me. He says,
"That's the one I shot him with."
