Description
Shortly after midnight on August 1, 1981 Sheila Snipes, age 20, returned home from a date. Sheila's seventeen-year-old brother, Scottie, was at the house at that time. Their parents, however, were away. Soon after her arrival Sheila heard a rattling sound and then Scottie yelling, "'[T]here is a man in the house.'" The intruder advanced toward Sheila and Scottie who were then in the kitchen. He wore dark clothes, a ski mask and socks covering both hands. Sheila described what occurred: "He started walking toward us and told us he was going to kill us." He repeated this three or four times in a disguised, muffled voice before Scottie tackled him. During the struggle Scottie pushed the man back against a fireplace built with jagged stone, and the intruder struck Sheila, who had attempted to aid her brother. She noticed that one of defendant's socks had come off revealing his hand. Later, a sock not belonging to any member of the Snipes household would be found in the area of the struggle. During the struggle Scottie observed a bare hand in his face. It was the left hand and Scottie bit down so hard on one of the middle fingers that he had blood in his mouth. Scottie then hit the man in the face. As the intruder left he stumbled over a table and two chairs. Sheila went to a neighbor's house for help and to call the police. While ringing the neighbor's doorbell Sheila saw the masked intruder running down the street.
