Description
There is no substantial dispute in the facts of this case. Both the victim and the defendant were drunk and were placed in the same drunk tank. The victim was placed in the cell about seven p.m. and the defendant about one hour later. After an elapse of approximately three hours a deputy sheriff checked the cell and discovered the victim lying in a pool of blood on the floor and the defendant asleep on a wall bench. The officer awoke the defendant and asked him, "What happened?" The defendant replied, "I killed the son of a bitch last night; he would not shut up." A few moments later the defendant began shouting, "Call the newspapers. The police did it."
