Tuesday, June 22, 1999 Children's testimony 'truthful' Described fatal
shootings
By NOVA PIERSON, CALGARY SUN
TSUU T'INA NATION -- Two children in a home where a woman and son were
shot dead by a Mountie give credible accounts of what they saw, said a
corporal who interviewed them one year later. But whether the public can
hear all, some or none of their video-taped statements is still a question
before the fatality inquiry of Connie Jacobs, 37, and her son Ty, 9.
Lawyers will continue arguing this morning whether making public their
accounts -- and even their interviewers' testimony -- would hurt them more
than it would serve the public good. Connie's son, Jericho, and
granddaughter Clarissa, now both age 5, generally gave credible accounts of
their memories of March 22, 1998, said RCMP Cpl. Craig Smith. That was the
night Connie exchanged gunfire with Okotoks RCMP Const. Dave Voller, who
came to the home to help social workers remove Connie's four children and
two grandchildren. "(Clarissa) gave very detailed and sometimes superfluous
details to incidents that happened before and after," said Smith. "In my
experience that's a good indication of credibility." Smith said Jericho
gave "the hallmark of a truthful response" when asked to clarify his
positioning of Ty and Connie at the door where they were shot.
"Overall he was credible, but there were some areas I couldn't interpret,"
said Smith, adding Jericho was stressed near the end of the interview and
he didn't feel he should push him further. The first police who entered the
home -- four hours after the shooting -- have said they saw the footprints
of a child in the blood near Connie and Ty.
