TULSA, Okla. (AP) - An
inmate has testified that 1 of 2 Tulsa men charged in the killings of 3
black people admitted to his role in the shootings.
Tulsa jail inmate Timothy
Hoey testified Wednesday during a preliminary hearing for 19-year-old
Jake England and 33-year-old Alvin Watts. The two are charged with
killing three people and wounding two others in Tulsa.
Hoey said he's known
England his whole life and that England told him the day after the April
shooting spree that he and Watts had shot some black people.
Prosecutors say the shootings were racially motivated - an allegation that defense attorneys deny.
Hoey, who is jailed on
charges that include false impersonation, acknowledged under
cross-examination that he hopes his cooperation in this case will help
him in his own.
