PAGE SIX PULLEY GETS 28 TO 30 YEARS (Continued from otic) tumatic rifles and One .25 automatic pistol. "I interviewed Pulley, after warn ing him* that he need tell nothing that would hurt him. I asked him about robbing the Kinston store in AußUst, stealing a car in October, and break ing out of the Martin County jail. When asked why he took the officer's lift Pulley told me, 'You can see why I could not afford to be arrested.' I told him he bad killed a good man and a good officer with nine children. ' "While coming from Henderson the next day. Pulley stated that he was at the scene of the killing, but did liul commit the crime. He stated that a gioup of iHHitleggers from Hear Grass had pursued him all night and passed him, that Jones had suggested they stop and get out to see what they wanted. When came up. Pulley stid the bootleggers began shooting and he ran. Alter they left he got hjs car and left. Pulley claimed- that vho went to his mother's home until he saw in- thc A'cwi &_JUIWCO:JX- that }ie was wajited. He stated that he left foi Brooklyn in the Chevrolet car and left it on the streets in New Vork, that he was broke. He returned to Hen derson on the train." Continuing with his story, the Pitt County Sheriff said, "The ..8 spen.il pistol iSad been found by Henderson officers at the home of , Pulley's mother and that it had a mark on the handle' and had been- positively identi fied by Albert Streets, who .had seen -Pulley—with il behind—Mr ■ Joyner's store in Greenville. The stock of the pistol had signs of clay and blood stains on it. Policeman's pistol has never been located " hollowing Sheriff Wliitehurst, Wil liam Andrews took the stand, stated that-he lives in Bethel ii-id was with Policeman Jones when l'ulley was ar rested at a Partnele filling station. He continued, "We returned to Bethel, and I was present at the hearing be fore Justice of the Peace Burton, hol lowing the hearing. I saw Jones l»a,vi "with Pulley about 12 o'clock after he had been advised not to go with the man to get bond. Jones stated that l'ulley had gained, his confidence and that he hated to lock him up After the State had completed its testimony and a plea tor mercy had been made by 1). 1. Warder . defend ant's 4 attorney, Judge Small ordered flu prisoner to stand up. The judge asked l'ulley a number of ifuestions, learning that Jones and l'ulley wore alone when the shooting occurred 1 ii I ley >l*t 1 ||> ihe mitt thai he aud Jones g'>t out "I lli£ i.ii. that lie watched for a chain e.ly run aud make | his escape, and when he did start to j run Johes began shooting at him, | Pulley stated he turned and shot j Jones. This story, in the main, -is thought to be true, with the .exception ft the facts describing Jones shooting at him.
