Alfredie Steele’s mother, Regina Clemmons, had just finished telling jurors about her son’s life; about how he had seen a crossed burned in the front yard of his Lacoochee home; about how his beloved stepfather had died in a boating accident; about how he avoided trouble for most of his life.
Assistant Public Defender Bob Focht said he had completed his questioning.
“But Mr. Focht,” Clemmons said, suddenly. “I just want to go on the record as saying I don’t believe my son did this.”
Clemmons took the stand today to tell jurors why her son shouldn’t be sentenced to death. Near the end of her testimony, Clemmons related that Steele had told her that he didn’t remember shooting at a patrol car.
“Why is it you had Alfredie turn himself in on this?” Focht asked.
“Cause I felt it was the right thing to do,” she said. “I was going on what Nathaniel [Vanzant] told me. I had no knowledge of nothing else.”
Nathaniel Vanzant is Clemmons’ nephew, Steele’s cousin. Vanzant was the initial suspect in Harrison’s murder but told investigators shortly after the crime that Steele was the shooter.
