Swift Statement cont'd 2
At 11.38am we arrived at the Dudley Hill
residence that I had visited when it was searched on Saturday, 31st March, 1990.
Detective Sergeant Gibbons drove to the courtyard area and parked the vehicle.
A woman in a blue gown at the door of an adjacent room walked to Mrs Williams`
residence and began to pull the door closed. I went directly to the door
and placed the brief case, a `search kit` in the door preventing it from being
closed fully. The woman let the door go and I showed her the search
warrant pertaining to the premises. As I did this I heard Detective
Sergeant McLean shout, "Swifty he`s run".
I saw Kim Hatherley, Dwight`s sister, run from the kitchen, outside shouting,
"Dwight don`t run".
I remained at the residence, in the kitchen, and continued to record notes of
what transpired.
At the residence was a man I knew as Kemma Belboda, he was
cursing. Another man who I now know as Shawn Hatherley, was calm.
Kim Hatherley and the woman in the blue robe were in tears.
At 11.45am Kim Hatherley left the area on a motor cycle. I called out to
her to be careful.
At 11.46am two (2) men and Kim Hatherley returned to the courtyard on their
motor cycles.
Dwight Hatherley was brought back to the area in the company of Detective
Sergeants Gibbons and McLean and Detective Constable Bourne. A number of
persons had gathered outside of the back door and I could see Detective Sergeant
Gibbons attempting to guide Dwight Hatherley to the kitchen from the Courtyard.
Shawn Hatherley asked to see the search warrant and I held it in front of him to
read and he appeared to do so.
At 11.48am, Detective Sergeant Gibbons had a brief struggle getting Dwight
Hatherley into the house. Detective Sergeant Gibbons had a hold of the
chain of the handcuffs and Dwight Hatherley was threatening him, verbally.
Detective Sergeant Bourne was at the table adjacent to the kitchen area and
Dwight Hatherley was with him. The men at the enterance attempted to gain
entry to the premises but were prevented from doing so by Detective Sergeant
McLean. I continued to record notes.
Kim Hatherley was in the kitchen area with Dwight Hatherley and I informed her
that we were in the premises to conduct a further search.
Dwight Hatherley began to say loudly, "All the ants in the jungle couldn`t
bring down a lion. I`m a lion I tread on ants like dirt".
At 11.51am I showed Kim Hatherley all the keys that were attached to the `Louis
Vuitton` purse, particularly the three (3) that did not appear to be door keys.
I said, "Have you seen these before?"
Kim said, "No".
I said, "Would you know what they are for?"
Kim Hatherley said, "No".
At 11.52am I tried the door key marked `Weiser` in the door lock to the back
door of the residence and it fit the lock.
I said, "Dwight, is there any reason why you told me you did not have a key
to these premises?".
Hatherley said, "I never told you that".
At 11.53am I went with Detective Sergeant Gibbons, Detective Constable Bourne
Dwight and Kim Hatherley to Dwight Hatherley`s Grandmother`s bedroom.
Detective Constable Bourne went directly to the wardrobe door and, from the top
shelf of the wardrobe, removed a `Louis Vuitton` briefcase and said, "Who
does this belong to".
Dwight Hatherley said, "It belongs to me".
I said, "Why did you not tell us that before?".
Hatherley replied, "Cause it was none of your business, there`s nothing in
there, you can look in there, it`s open".
Detective Constable Bourne opened the case displaying the contents, which
consisted of correspondence and books, and informed Hatherley that the case was
being seized.
I showed the `Louis Vuitton` key, on the ring of five (5) keys attached to the
`Louis Vuitton` purse, and said, "Is this the key for the case?".
Hatherley said, "Yes it is".
I said, "Dwight why did you lie to me about the key last night?"
Hatherley said, "Cause it`s none of your business".
I then showed Hatherley a key marked with the name `Masters`, and said,
"What is this for?".
Hatherley said, "My tool box, that`s outside in the yard".
I showed Hatherley a key marked with the words `Long Lock` and said, "What
is this for?".
Hatherely said, "I found that a long time ago, it`s my good luck key".
I said, "Is there anything else in your Grandmother`s room that belongs to
you, we will be re - searching it".
Hatherley said, "There`s nothing in the house that belongs to me".
Detective Constable continued to search the wardrobe.
At about 12.01pm Hatherley asked for his handcuffs to loosened and I assisted
him with this. Hatherley was perspiring and I informed him that, should he
want a cold drink, to ask his sister, Kim.
Hatherley said to Kim, "Can you get me some cold water".
At 12.06pm Kim left the room walking to the stairs.
Detective Constable Bourne removed a box from the top shelf of the wardrobe.
On top of this box was a blue bag containing disposable gloves. I said,
"Whose bag is this?"
Hatherley said, "It`s mine".
The bag was seized and Kim Hatherley returned to the room with a drink which she
handed to Dwight Hatherley.
I said, "Did you take the bag away with you on your last trip?".
Hatherley said, "No".
In the bottom right hand (Southeast) corner of the wardrobe were two trunks
placed one on top of the other.
At 12.15pm Detective Constable Bourne removed the upper most trunk from the
wardrobe, which had a single handle upon the side with the lock, and said,
"What`s in there?".
Kim Hatherley said, "My Grandmother`s belongings".
I said, "Dwight, what`s in there?".
Hatherely said, "No reply".
I said, "Is it your grandmother`s belongings?"
Hatherley said, "Yes".
Detective Constable Bourne said, "Where`s the key?".
Hatherley said, "I don`t know".
I said, "If we can`t open it then we will take it away with us and have it
opened".
Detective Constable Bourne then tried to use the key marked `Long Lock` but was
unable to open the lock. Hatherley lent over Detective Constable Bourne
and said, "Give me it here".
Detective Constable Bourne handed the key to Hatherley who, using the key,
opened the trunk revealing the contents, which filled the trunk.
I said, "Whose stuff is this?".
Hatherley said, "It`s mine"
Detective Bourne then pulled out the second, lower, trunk. This trunk had
a handle at each end. Detective Constable Bourne said, "Whose trunk
is this?".
Hatherley said, "It`s mine".
Detective Constable Bourne then placed the trunk on top of the first trunk and
asked, "Where`s the key?".
Hatherley said, "In the bottom trunk".
Detective Constable Bourne continued to search the premises and, at 12.22pm, Mrs
Williams returned to the residence and began to rant about officers being at her
residence once, searching her place and coming up her job.
Detective Constable Bourne said, "Where is your `phone bill".
Mrs Williams sat on the bed and continued to rant about getting a lawyer and not
knowing where the current bills are. Mrs Williams handed to Detective Constable
Bourne the January bills for telephone numbers 236 7842 and 236 1620.
At 12.29pm Hatherley was escorted from the premises by Detective Constable
Bourne. Detective Sergeant Gibbons left carrying the `Louis Vuitton`
briefcase and the blue bag containing the disposable gloves. I remained
with the trunks.
Detective Sergeant Gibbons returned with Detective Constable Bourne and officers
from the `Task Force`, which included Police Sergeant `7`, Smith. The Task
Force officers removed the trunk that was found second, from the premises and I
followed carrying the first trunk.
Both trunks were placed in the uniform Police car which was being driven by
Police Sergeant Smith.
At 12.34pm, I went with Hatherley and other officers to a large tool box at the
East side of Hatherley residence. This box appeared to be a permanent.
Detective Constable Bourne opened the lock using the `Masters` key on
Hatherley`s `Louis Vuitton` purse link.
The tool box was searched and all the contents left intact.
As we were about to leave the premises Mrs Williams called out asking for the
key to her door.
I explained to Mrs Williams that Police would require the key as evidence and
stated that I would replace it.
Mrs Williams agreed to this but demanded that it be done by 7am the following
day.
Having assured Mrs Williams that this would be done, in company with the other
officers, I left the area and went to the Incident Room, North, at Police
Headquaters.
At 12.47pm we arrived at the incident room and Detective Constable Bourne and I
escorted Hatherley to the North Incident room`s interview room and Detective
Constable Bourne remained with Hatherley. I assisted Police Sergeant Smith
to carry the trunks from the Police car to the room in which Hatherley was
waiting with Detective Constable Bourne. All the items seized from the
address at Dudley Hill, Paget were conveyed to this room.
At 12.52pm Hatherley said, "Is it possible that my Attorney can be
present".
I said, "You may speak to your Attorney if you wish, we have said that all
along, but I cannot see him wanting to be present during our search of the
property seized earlier as that will make him a witnesss and therefore
complicate his representing you. Even a representative can attend if you
so wish so long as you understand that they can observe and not obstruct.
Do you wish to `phone your attorney now?".
Hatherley said, "Yes I wish to speak to him please".
I said, "Who do you wish to call?".
Hatherley said, "Julian Hall".
At 1.01pm I handed the telephone directory to Hatherley and he called out the
number `292 6922` which I dialed. There was no reply and I redialed the
number.
At 1.04pm the call was answered and on speaking to the person answering I was
transfered to a man who identified himself as Perry Trott who informed me that
Mr Hall was at lunch.
I handed the receiver to Hatherley who then spoke into the mouth-piece and
stated that he was"held at Prospect".
Hatherley replaced the receiver and I said, "Will Mister Trott contact
Mister Hall for you?".
Hatherley said, "He`s going to leave a message".
Having continued to make contemporaneous notes I then asked Hatherley to sign my
record alongside the entry I had made for 1301 hours which was the entry
relating to Hatherley`s call to Vaucrossen`s Chambers. I placed a red ink
cross at the position on the record at which I had asked him to sign.
Hatherley declined to sign, and stated that he would do so after having spoken
with his lawyer.
At 1.08pm I said, "Dwight, it is intended to open and examine the contents
of all the bags, trunks and cases that were seized this morning from your
Grandmother`s residence please remember what I told you earlier. You are
not obliged to say anything unless you wish to do so and that what you say will
be taken down in writing and maybe given in evidence. Do you understand
this?".
Again I made contemporaneous notes, and Hatherley said, "Yes".
I said, "Do you wish to sign or make mark to your reply?".
Hatherley said, "No".
Also present were Detective Sergeant Gibbons and Detective Constable Bourne, who
placed the `Louis Vuitton` brief case upon the desk about which we were all sat.
From the case Detective Constable Bourne removed a piece of paper, a pamphlet,
bearing handwriting, which refered to a Mitsubushi Lancer motor car.
I said, "Dwight, it is quite obvious that I will need to ask you questions
about some of the items we find. I wish to put some questions to you about
the offence for which you may be prosecuted, namely the importation of a
controlled drug, and in particular the relevance that anything that is found may
have with regard to the offence. You are not obliged to answer any of
these questions unless you wish to do so but if you do the questions and answers
will be taken down in writing and maybe given in evidence. Do you
understand this?".
Hatherley said, "Yes".
I showed Hatherley the Mitsubushi Lancer booklet and said,
"Whose paper is this?".
Hatherley said, "Mine".
I said, "Why do you have it?".
Hatherley said, "Well, I had an appointment today to go to the bank to
obtain a loan for a station wagon like that".
I said, "Which bank?".
Hatherley said, "Bank of Bermuda, they do not know as of yet what the loan
was for".
I said, "How much of a deposit do you need to put down on such a
car?".
Hatherley replied, "I`m not even sure, nothing was finalised".
Detective Constable Bourne handed to me a receipt, number 60735, for `Jamm
Sound` and I showed this to Hatherley and said, "What is this for?".
Hatherley said, "That`s for the portable `phone that I purchased while
abroad".
I said, "How did you pay for this?".
Hatherley said, "Cash, I was allowed to take three thousand dollars ($3000)
out".
At 1.35pm I used the telephone to call internal extension 4262, the Police
canteen. I ordered food for myself and Hatherley who requested a turkey
sandwich with a mayonaise and mustard filling. Detective Sergeant Gibbons
left the interview room.
Detective Constable Bourne handed to me a `Calypso` receipt which I showed to
Hatherley and said, "What`s this for?".
Hatherley said, "It`s for the case, the date`s eighty seven (87)".
I said, "You told me you bought the key abroad last night, why was
this?".
Hatherley said, "No, No I told you that I bought the key case abroad and
that the key came with it".
I said, "Yes?".
Hatherley said, "O.k. I lied about that".
I said, "Why did you lie about the key?".
Hatherley said, "Because I didn`t want you to confiscate my
briefcase".
I said, "Why not".
Hatherley said, "Cause I worked hard for it".
At 1.31pm Detective Constable Bourne handed me five (5) sheets of yellow paper
bearing writing and I read them out aloud and showed them to Hatherley.
At 1.33am, Detective Sergeant Gibbons returned to the interview room with our
food, and drinks which consisted of apple juice and orange juice, and we took a
break to eat.
Detective Constable Bourne continued to search through and check the contents of
the brief case as we ate.
At 1.47pm Hatherley concluded eating and I said, "How tall are you?".
Hatherley said, "Six foot two inches (6`2") why, what does it say
there?".
I showed Hatherley the five (5) pages and said, "Does this refer to
you?".
Hatherley said, "It`s just a story I was writing".
I said, "About yourself?"
Hatherley said, "Yup", and nodded.
I said, "Who is David Randolf?".
Hatherley replied, "He`s my brother".
I said, "Where does he live".
Hatherley said, "Philadelphia".
I said, "Did you visit him on your last trip?".
Hatherley said, "No, I didn`t".
I said, "Why not?".
Hatherley replied, "I just didn`t, no special reason".
I said, "How long were you away for".
Hatherley said, "One (1) week".
I said, "Where did you stay?".
Hatherley said, "No reply".
I then showed Hatherley a yellow `Huron 31873 - 2` pad with a top page bearing
handwriting.
I said, "What does this refer to?"
Hatherley said, "It`s a loan I took out to help finish my Grandmother`s
house off because she couldn`t get another one, so I did it for her".
I said, "Which bank did you use".
Hatherley said, "Butterfield".
I said, "When did they grant the loan?".
Hatherley said, "I believe it was in November".
I said, "How much was the loan for?".
Hatherley said, "I believe it was for eleven thousand, six hundred and
twenty eight dollars ($11,628) with the interest, the loan was probably about
ten thousand dollars ($10,000).
I said, "You say `probably` can you be exact?".
Hatherley said, "I think it was ten thousand dollars ($10,000) I`m not
sure".
I said, "Where did the bank place this money for you?".
Hatherley said, "They gave it to us in cheques to pay off the bills that we
had".
I then showed Hatherley a `Top Blues` business card and said, "Who is
Teddy?".
Hatherley said, "He`s the manager of the shop".
I said, "Is he a good friend?".
Hatherley said, "No, no, I met him because I got a couple of pairs of men`s
pants".
I said, "Whose telephone number is on the back?".
Hatherley said, "Ah ...", there was a pause and Hatherley continued,
"Oh, o.k., o.k. ... that the number to another of the branches of the store
and that`s the girl that I was supposed to contact".
I then showed Hatherley a Mastercard bill, account number 5217 8620 0111 2367,
dated 19th October, 1987.
Hatherley said, "That`s out dated".
I said, "Do you still possess a card pertaining to the account?".
Hatherley said, "No I don`t, I closed the account".
At 1.59pm I showed Hatherley an `Office Equipment Limited` receipt numbered `R
50559` which pertained to the purchase of a safe. I said, "Where is
this safe?".
Hatherley said, "I couldn`t tell you right now, somebody`s probably moved
it, there`s nothing to hide in it. It`s brand new, I bought it for my
grandmother for her personal belongings".
I said, "Where did you put it?".
Hatherley said, "In one of the barns".
I said, "Which barns".
Hatherley said, "Out near where my tool box was".
I said, "Who would have moved it?".
Hatherley said, "There`s a lot of people live at that house".
I said, "Are you telling me that you placed a brand new safe
outside?".
Hatherley said, "It was pretty much in the doorway of the barn".
Hatherley then pulled at the backing of the brief case`s lid and displayed paper
work relating to the safe, this he handed to Detective Constable Bourne.
I said, "How do you know that it has been moved?".
Hatherley said, "The last time I looked it wasn`t there".
I said, "When was that?".
Hatherley said, "Today I noticed that it wasn`t there and the day before
you arrested me it wasn`t there. If you have to, we can go and look in it
but I ask you not to confiscate it. It`s for my Grandmother".
I said, "How can we open it if you do not know where it is?".
Hatherley said, "You can go and ask, I`ll call and tell them to give it to
you".
I said, "Did you buy it alone?".
Hatherley said, "Yes I did".
I said, "How did you pay for it?".
Hatherley said, "Cash. I don`t have chequing accounts or credit
cards".
I said, "If the safe was for your Grandmother why did you place it
outside?".
Hatherley said, "Because I hadn`t found a spot in the house to put
it".
I said, "Did you tell your Grandmother that you`d bought her a safe?".
Hatherley said, "Yes, she knows".
At 2.09pm I showed Hatherley the first page of a yellow book with `5 A PLUS 5
SUBJECT` printed upon the cover.
I said, "What does this refer to?".
Detective Constable Bourne then accompanied Hatherley to the bathroom, at his
request.
At 2.12pm Hatherly and Detective Constable Bourne returned to the interview
room.
I said, "Returning to this piece of paper, when did you write it?".
Hatherley said, "Long time ago".
I then showed Hatherley a small black battery operated spelling machine, and
said, "When did you buy this Franklin computer?".
Hatherly said, "Last year sometime".
At 2.15pm Detective Constable Bourne displayed the contents of the small blue
canvas bag, that had been seized earlier from the top shelf of the bedroom
wardrobe, and placed a pipe upon the table.
Hatherley said, "I found that".
I said, "Why did you keep it?".
Hatherley said, "I have a tendancy of keeping some things that I
found".
I said, "Where did you get this torn manilla envelope with foil discs
(mesh) and this small plastic envelope from?".
Hatherley said, "I found them about four (4) years ago on the beach".
I said, "Whose are the disposable gloves?".
Hatherley said, "They`re mine".
I said, "What do you have them for?".
Hatherley said, "Different little things, whatever I need them for, I
happened to stumble across them at the Pharmacy one day and purchased
them".
I said, "Which Pharmacy did you get the gloves from?".
Hatherley said, "Hamilton Pharmacy, on the same road as the Post Office, on
the same side".
I said, "When did you buy them?".
Hatherley said, "Last year sometime".
I then showed a pair of black handled scissors to Hatherley that had also been
found in the blue bag. I said, "Whose scissors are these?".
Hatherley said, "They`re mine".
I said, "What do you use them for?".
Hatherley said, "Whatever scissors are used for".
I said, "Did you take any of these items from the blue bag to the United
States with you on your recent trip?".
Hatherley said, "No".
I then showed Hatherley the telephone bills for `236 1620` and `236 7842`, both
of which were dated 1st January, 1990, and said, "Whose number is 215 925
9003?".
Hatherley replied, "That`s Jason`s number".
I said, "Jason who?".
Hatherley said, "Jason Harvey".
I said, "Who made the calls displayed on the bill?".
Hatherley said, "Me".
I said, "Do you often call Jason Harvey?".
Hatherley said, "Yes".
At 2.18pm Hatherley asked to speak with Mr Julian Hall, and I called `292 6922`
and spoke to a lady. I informed her that I was Detective Constable Swift
of the Narcotics Department and said, "I would like to speak with Mister
Hall".
As a result of the reply that I received, I said, "It is me that would like
to speak with Mister Hall".
As a result of the reply that I received, I said, "It is personal, me
personally who would like to speak with him".
I was eventually connected to Mr Hall and I said, "I have a prisoner with
me who would like to speak with you, he may become one of your clients, Mister
Hatherley".
As a result of the reply that I received, I said, "He has been trying to
contact you all weekend without success and I find it hard to believe you were
not made aware of this".
As a result of the reply that I received, I said, "I think that you will
find he was restrained, and that the information you have received is
understandably biased, anyway, I`ll hand him over to you".
I then handed the telephone to Hatherley.
Hatherley said into the receiver, "I was roughed up".
There was a pause and he said, "They wanted to make another search".
There was a pause and he said, "No probably hard earned money".
There was a pause and he said, "That`s just about it".
There was a pause and, at 2.31pm, Hatherley said, "Thank you very much,
bye".
Hatherley then replaced the receiver.
Throughout the proceedings I continued to record contemporaneous notes and
recorded my conversation with Mr Hall on a seperate piece of paper.
At 2.32pm Detective Constable Bourne opened the trunk with a single handle on
the side and took out a Bank of N.T. Butterfield burgundy zip purse.
Hatherley said, "It`s all hard earned money mate".
There was a pause and he continued, "There`s no need to count it, the
amount`s on it".
Detective Constable Bourne said, "How much is it?".
Hatherley said, "Six thousand (6000)".
Detective Constable Bourne then counted the money which consisted of sixty (60)
one hundred dollar ($100) bills. I recorded the money on the
contemporaneous notes and Hatherley placed his signature against the total when
given the opportunity.
I said, "We are seizing that money".
Hatherley said, "That`s about the only thing I didn`t want you to find in
that trunk `cause you`d confiscate it".
Detective Constble Bourne then handed to me two (2) rubber bands and two (2)
pieces of paper. One of the pieces of paper bore the handwriting `Mike 292
7822`, the other, `Eugene Beach 293 3096`.
Hatherley said, "Those are just friends `phone numbers I dropped them in
there I didn`t have a chance to write them into my book".
I said, "Where did this cash come from?".
Hatherley said, "I worked for that, jobs in the past".
I said, "Why didn`t you put it into a savings account?".
Hatherley said, "Because I told you, I was going to put a deposit on a car
today".
I said, "You told me it wasn`t finalised".
Hatherley said, "I don`t know how much they wanted for a quarter down, four
or six thousand dollars ($4,000 or $6,000), that`s a quarter of sixteen thousand
dollars ($16,000).
I said, "How much is the car deposit?".
Hatherley said, "I`m not sure, the last one I bought six (6) years ago was
a quarter down".
I said, "Over what period did you obtain that six thousand dollars
($6000)?".
Hatherley said, "From January this year. I obviously obtained more
than that `cause I took a trip".
I said, "When did you take the cash out of the bank?".
Hatherley said, "I never deposited it into a bank. I get cash for
jobs and ask for big bills".
I said, "Why did you close a savings account in January when you had a lot
of cash?".
Hatherley said, "That was a checking account".
I said, "Do you have a savings account?".
Hatherley said, "Yes I do, I have two (2) savings accounts and a seven (7)
percent plan".
I said, "Do you have any savings accounts with the Bank of
Bermuda?".
I said, "How much is in that?".
Hatherley said, "About five thousand or six thousand dollars ($5000 or
$6000)".
I said, "The cash that you have, how did you earn it?".
Hatherley said, "Construction".
I said, "Is that since January?".
Hatherley said, "The six thousand dollars ($6000) in cash, yes".
I said, "Have you been working steadily for the past three (3)
months?".
Hatherley said, "I always work".
I said, "How many trips have you taken this year?".
Hatherley said, "Two or three (2 or 3), two (2) this year I think".
I said, "How much money did you take with you on each occasion?".
Hatherley said, "Last trip three thousand dollars ($3000) and I don`t
remember the one before that".
I said, "Do you have any accounts overseas?".
Hatherley said, "No".
At 2.49pm Detective Constable Bourne opened a bank of Bermuda zip purse, found
in the trunk, and exposed a quantity of cash, which he counted in Hatherley`s
presence. I recorded the cash denominations and total, Five Hundred and
Thirty Dollars ($530) on the record and Hatherley signed against the total when
given the opportunity.
An Eastern airlines ticket number 007 4446 901 330 and two (2) boarding passes
in the name of Pamela Howell were also found in the purse.
Hatherley said, "I do have a child to support, I hope I`m going to get my
money back".
I said, "Why do you have a ticket in the name of Pamela Howell?".
Hatherley said, "I told you, I`m holding that for my mother, it`s
hers".
At 2.54pm I handed the key, obtained from Mrs Williams earlier, bearing the
number `E63416`, to Detective Sergeant Gibbons and asked him to have a copy cut.
A second Bank of Bermuda purse was found and opened by Detective Constable
Bourne. The contents were displayed and I again recorded the denominations
of the cash revealed and the total, one hundred and sixty dollars ($160).
Hatherley signed against the total when given the opportunity.
Detective Constable Bourne then produced a passport number 109510 in the name of
D.L. Hatherley. I said, "Why did you tell me that this was
lost?".
Hatherley said, "I didn`t want you to go into my private belongings".
Detective Constable Bourne then produced a Bank Of Bermuda savings book for
Account number 501 00171 in the name of Dwight Hatherley, handed the book to me
and I studied it.
I said, "On 16th March, 1990, you placed two thousand dollars ($2000) into
your savings account. Where did this money come from?".
Hatherley said, "Hard earned money. Two thousand dollars ($2000)
isn`t very much money".
I said, "What jobs have you been working since January, who specifically
have you been working for?".
Hatherley said, "No reply".
I said, "Dwight, you have stated that you have saved eight thousand dollars
($8000) in the past twelve (12) weeks and also taken two trips on one of
which you took with you three thousand dollars ($3000). You have a child
to support as well. Why will you not mention where this hard earned money
came from?".
Hatherley said, "I make an average of one thousand five hundred dollars
($1,500) to two thousand dollars ($2,000) per week that`s a hell of a lot more
than twelve thousand dollars ($12,000)".
I said, "Why did you place two thousand dollars ($2,000) in your savings
account on March 16th, 1990, but keep back six thousand dollars ($6,000) in
cash?".
Hatherley said, "I already answered that".
I said, "But your deposit would be for a Bank of Bermuda loan and your
savings account is with the Bank of Bermuda, why not place the six thousand
dollars ($6,000) in your Bermuda Account?".
Hatherley said, "I had intended to if the loan was approved".
I said, "Are you still paying the loan for the ten thousand dollars
($10,000) with the Bank of Butterfield".
Hatherley said, "Yes".
I said, "How much is outstanding on that?".
Hatherley said, "I have no idea".
I said, "How much do you pay a month for that loan?".
Hatherley said, "It`s three hundred and twenty something dollars".
I said, "Returning to where you are obtaining your cash from, you have
declined to tell me from whom you received payments for work, why?".
Hatherley said, "Because it`s not necessary, sometimes I don`t get
receipts".
I said, "Do you have any receipts for work this year?".
Hatherley said, "No I don`t".
I said, "Who have you worked for this year?".
Hatherley said, "No reply".
I said, "I put it to you that you will not tell me where you received the
money because it is related to the sale or handling of controlled drugs".
Hatherley said, "That`s not true".
I said, "Who can verify that you received this money from hard work?".
Hatherley said, "Me".
At 3.16pm I received a telephone call from Detective Sergeant Gibbons. I
had a short conversation in the presence of Hatherley who, when I had replaced
the receiver, said, "You`re going to open this without my presence?"
I replied, "Yes".
Hatherley then showed Detective Constable Bourne how to open the other trunk.
I said, "I intend now to close this record here and search through the rest
of your property in company with D.C. Bourne here. Is there anything that
you would like to add?".
Hatherley said, "No".
I said, "I have completed a number of pages as we have spoken, do you wish
to read the record of our conversation?".
Hatherley said, "No, it`s not necessary".
I said, "You appear to have been reading my writing as we went along is
that correct?".
Hatherley said, "Yes".
I said, "As you have seen me write, is what you have observed
correct?".
Hatherley said, "No reply".
I said, "Is there anything that you would like to add?".
Hatherley said, "Nope".
I said, "Can you think of anything that you would like to alter or
correct?".
Hatherley said, "No".
I said, "Would you like to sign the record?".
Hatherley said, "No thank you".
I said, "I have placed asterix`s against my mistakes would you initial
against these?".
Hatherley said, "What mistakes?".
I then went over the record with Hatherley pointing out the mistakes whilst
reading it to him.
At the conclusion Hatherley said, "No".
The record was concluded at 3.25pm and I endorsed it accordingly in Hatherley`s
presence. I then signed the record, in Hatherley`s presence, as did
Detective Sergeant Gibbons and Detective Constable Bourne.
At 3.30pm I went with Hatherley to the Narcotics office leaving Detective
Constable Bourne with the exhibits.
Hatherley remained seated in the Narcotics office foyer beside the Detective
Inspector`s office, silent, and I saw Detective Constable Bourne hand the
briefcase and correspondence exhibits to D.S. Pett.
At 3.36pm I left the Narcotics office in company with Hatherley, Detective
Sergeant Gibbons and Detective Constable Bourne.
At 3.47pm I left Hatherley with the gaoler at Hamilton Police Station.
At 3.50pm I went to Ward`s locksmith`s and obtained a copy of the key that I had
seized from Mrs Williams and obtained receipt number 72 from the Locksmith.
I left the premises at 3.58pm and went directly to Dudley Hill where I handed
the key to Mrs Williams who signed a Bermuda Police receipt, number C 0613 for
it.
I then returned to the Narcotics Office where Detective Constable Bourne
obtained the exhibits from D.S. Pett.
Detective Constable Bourne and I then went to the incident room with the
exhibits, these we sorted, indexed, labelled and signed where necessary.
I stamped all the correspondence using a sequential stamping device, prefixing
all documents seized with the number `1`, commencing 100001.
At about 8.40pm we secured the exhibits in the incident room and left the
building.
On Tuesday, 3rd April 1990, I continued to catalogue the documents relating to
Hatherley and Harvey and at 2.00pm submitted the exhibits seized from the blue
bag seized on Monday 1st April 1990, @ Hatherley`s residence. These
exhibits I placed in"heat seal"bags. I labelled and sealed them
accordingly.
I then returned to the Narcotics Office and, in company with Detective Constable
Bourne, sorted the articles and indexed the correspondence seized from Hatherley. | |
