(AP)-William Bennett, once considered a prime suspect in the shooting of Charles and Carol Stuart, said being publicly link ed to the case has ruined his life. Bennett had been considered the prime suspect in the case until last Thursday, when Charles Stuart leaped to his death from the Tobin Bridge after learning he was a suspect in the killing. Stuart’s brother, Matthew, im plicated Stuart in the Oct. 23, 1989 shooting that killed Carol Stuart and left Charles Stuart wounded. Bennett, 39, said last Thursday his life “has been ruined and no one is willing to take responsibility.’’ “It is a shame that it took the suicide of the real killer this morning to open people’s eyes to the fact that I am innocent and always have been,” Bennett said in a prepared statement issued by his lawyer. “Although the prosecution in this case has cleared me as a suspect, this is not enough," read the statement issued at the Norfolk County Jail in Dedham, where Bennett is being held on an unrelated armed robbery charge. Robert George, Bennett’s lawyer, BELKIW THE TRIANGLE: Hudson Bdk RALEIGH: Downtown (832-5851) Mon -Thins & Sat. 9 3QAM 5 30PM and Frl 930AM900PM CALI TOLL FREE 1-800-662-7221 Save on fashion, accessories & home items Shop Our Doorbuster Specials From ll:00-3:00pm For Extra Savings SORRY, NO MAIL OR PHONE ORDERS ON DOORBUSTER SPECIALS. criticized police and prosecutors wno branded Bennett asthe chiefjsuspect in the Stuart case, indirectly driving his bail in the armed robbery case up. George declined to say whether a civil suit would be filed on Bennett’s behalf. Last week, Bennett was included in a police lineup viewed by Stuart, who reportedly told police that Bennett looked “most like” his assailant. Bennett’s relatives said he made an easy scapegoat because of his race and his prior criminal record. Ben nett served time in prison for shooting a police officer in 1973 and threatening another with a shotgun in 1981. “There’s white man’js justice and black man’s justice,” Bennett’s brother, Ronald, said. “Race was absolutely a factor,” George said. “Charles Stuart turns around and wants the world to believe a black man shot him and his family. They immediately accented that as r true and looked at every black criminal they could get their hands on and they ended up trying to pin it on Bennett.” The number of counties wit^i unemployment rates at or below fiv/e percent increased to 91 in November. The number of counties at or below that rate in November 1968 was 86. Analysts with the Employment Security Commission regard five per cent as a near full-employment situa tion. Two counties, Graham at 12.0 per cent and tyrrell at 11.1 percent, had unemployment rates above 10 per cent in November. Orange County, at 1.4 percent, had the state’s lowest unemployment rate in November. The unemploymente rates for the metropolitan statistical areas for November 1989 compared to November 1988 were: Asheville, 2.3 percent, down from 3.1 percent; Burl ington, 2.5 percent, down from 3.2 percent; Charlotte-Gastonia-Rock Hill, 2.6 percent, down from 3.4 per cent; Fayetteville, 3.3 percent, down from 4.6 percent; Greensboro/Winston-Salem/High Point, 2.7 percent, down from 3.2 per cent; Hickory, 2.4 percent, down from 3.4 percent; Jacksonville, 2.5 percent, down from 3.1 percent; Raleigh/Durham, 1.9 percent, down from 2.4 percent; and Wilmington, 3.1 percent, down from 4.2 percent.
