(AP) — A state judge has ruled that suspected serial killer Jeffery Lee Guillory spoke “freely and voluntarily” to Baton Rouge police in 2006 and 2009.
Tuesday’s ruling by District Judge Tony Marabella gives prosecutors permission to use those statements at Guillory’s second-degree murder trial set to begin Monday.
The Advocate reports the Sept. 26, 2006, statement was taken more than three years before Guillory’s arrest in the slayings of Florida Edwards, Sylvia Cobb and Renee Newman, all of Baton Rouge.
