out of his head"
Attorney Jerry Paul in
dicated to ; news reporters
Monday that he thought that v
Joan was in the Norfolk area
with an unspecified group.
Ms. Little has been Visited
periodically for almost two
vears at the prison by the
Norfolk based : Prison Soli
darity ' Support Group' and
members of , Workers World
Party, also based in Norfolk.
After Joan failed to respond
to Paul's pleas in the news to
call him, send a telegram, or
communicate with him to let
him know she was safe, Paul
expressed doubts about her
safety.
' John Long of the Pri
soners Solidarity Committee
said Tuesday that law en
forcement officers had
stopped him three times that
afternoon and had also
stopped and questioned
several other members of his
organization, The Norfolk
Police Department denied his
accounts Long, a frequent
visitor .to the prison, said
that-, he . has neither seen
nor heard from Ms. Little
since her disappearance.
Some, of Paul's appre
hension apparently is cen
tered around the shooting of
23 year-old Stephen Perkins
for which Vernal Muhammad
(Smith) has been indicted -a
man known as Ms. little's
boyfriend. Perkins said that
he was making some repairs
at a house owned by Raleigh
dentist Dr. D. P. Lane, Ms.
Little's employer. The house
was to have been . occupied
by Ms. Little upon parole.
Perkins said that he
opened the door to
Muhammad, who he had
known as Joan's boyfriend.
According to Perkins,
Muhammad said that he had
to get some things out of a '
drawer, and "suddenly, he y
just started shooting me"; ,
Raleigh clothing store, said he
didn't ' know of any) reason
for the shooting. Perl ins said
that it was only aftei he had
recovered from six shots in
the hospital and Muhammad's
unfriendly, visits to his job
site; that a warrant for assault . ,
and battery with intent to
kill, was signed against
Muhammad.
At the time of Ms. Little's
disappearance, Walter.
Kautsky, Asistant Director of
Prisons,' said that Ms. Little
was being questioned about
an alleged forgery of $200
from her roommate. Kautsky
said that Mary Locklear had
Ms. Little to cash a $200
check for her but Joan did
not return with the money.
. Perkins says that he met
Ms. Little at a restaurant on
South Wilmington Street in
Raleigh, accompanied by Ms.
Locklear, on September 12.
According to Perkins, the
three discussed Perkins' cash
ing a check for Ms. Locklear.
He said, later that afternoon,
Ms.: Little brought him the
check, which he cashed in
his savings account two days
later. He said his bank would
give only $100 from the
check because the check had
to clear before the remain
der could be paid. Perkins
said he was threatened by
police and said he told police
officers that the check was
endorsed when Ms. Little
brought it to him. Perkins -said
he thought Ms. Lock
lear received the money, but
had no direct knowledge of
it.
". Raleigh Attorney David
Best, hired most recently
by Ms. Little to secure her
parole, said that Ms. Little
was frustrated and depressed
shortly before her disappea
rance. He said that she talked
with him on Friday evening.
Best was present at the last
press visit Ms. . Little had .
before she disappeared and
advised her not to talk about
pressure prison officials were
mtting on her "because
t might prejudice her case". .
So far there have been no
arrangements for Ms. Little
to return to prison although
Paul said he x would ; make
arrangements or do whatever
Ms. Little wanted done . as -soon
as she contacted him.
I James Grant, a spokes- '
, person for the N. C. Pri
soners Union, commented
that if Paul and best are
going to talk , in terms of
getting : her i to surrender,
which may or may not be a

years. He was also a member

"you could go out to the Old

Not all of the board mem
bers were in agreement for a
substantial increase, The
matter had been studied by
Board's Social Services
Committee and. Finance
Committee, but neither had a
recommendation.
Board member George
Autry hesitated saying "it's
too big a jump from $100 to
$180 for people to budget
for." He pushed for a retreat
from the $180 to a lesser
amount.
