23.
described as 6 inches east of the east wall of the house
and even with the door jamb to the front door is type O-M, the same as Sharon
Polanski's. From the amount of blood there it would appear that she remained
there for at least minutes prior to movement. This also holds true for Sebring.
Sebring and Polanski were then ordered or taken into the living room. At this
point, it is conjecture as to whether they were tied with the rope before being
murdered or after the murder. The rope was undoubtedly brought there by the
killers as no one can place this rope at the Polanski home prior to the murder,
nor has this type of rope been seen at The killers, after taking Polanski and Sebring into the living room, stabbed them to death at this point. Sebring was shot in the abdominal region sometime during the assault. Investigating officers are unable to determine whether this occurred on the front porch or after he was taken into the living room. Before leaving the location, one of the killers took some type of cloth, wiped it across the blood on the front porch, probably from that which had been described as Sharon Polanski' s blood, type O-M, and printed the letters, "PIG" on the lower portion of the front door. The killers then left the location without ransacking the house. Paper money
was in plain view throughout the house and Sebring had a wrist watch on his
wrist, in plain view, valued Two theories exist as to when Parent, the fifth victim, was killed. The
possibility exists that as the killers entered the property, Parent observed
them as he was leaving the Garretson residence. The killers, in order to avoid
detection, shot Parent before he could leave. Parent also had one defense wound
in his left hand. This was a long laceration to the palm between the ring and
the little finger, which severed the tendons. It is investigating officers'
opinion that Parent would not have been killed simply because he saw someone
enter the gate, unless the assailants went there with the express purpose of
killing everyone The second theory is that as Parent left the Garretson residence he observed either part or all of the above-described crimes. He ran for his car, which was parked somewhere in the paved parking area of the property. He entered the car, backed it up at a high rate of speed, struck the curb and knocked down the split-rail fence previously described. He then turned the car in a westerly direction, and in an attempt to evade his pursuers turned the car at an odd angle toward the gate. At this point, he was caught and killed. If we assume that the killers went there to kill all the persons at the Polanski home, then we can also assume that they cut the phone wires |
