00:00Detective Shaw, did you have occasion to see the defendant an hour before the shooting?
00:06I did. He was suicidal. Almost jumped into the East River.
00:12Tell us about your conversation.
00:14He said that he felt like a failure, that he let people down.
00:20I wasn't aware of it at the time, but I think he was talking about what happened to his wife and his unborn child.
00:27Did he appear to be coherent?
00:30We were able to communicate.
00:32You were able to reason with him?
00:35I asked him about his family, if he had kids.
00:39And this struck a chord with him?
00:42I believe so. He mentioned he had a son, Daniel.
00:50And eventually he calmed down and said he wanted to go home and be with him.
00:55Sounds like a man who can understand the consequences of his actions.
00:58Objection. Counsel's editorializing.
01:00Sustained.
01:03When you went to arrest the defendant, he fled, correct?
01:11Yes.
01:12So he knew that he was guilty?
01:15I suppose.
01:16And he still had the gun with him when you placed him under arrest?
01:20Yes, he did.
01:22And after you arrested him, what did he say to you?
01:35Detective Shaw, what did the defendant say to you?
01:43He said it was an eye for an eye.
01:46So what he did was intentional.
01:50Killing Dr. Jeffress was an act of willful revenge.
01:55I can't speak to that.
02:00I can testify to what he said.
02:04An eye for an eye.
02:10Thank you.
02:11Nothing further.
