Breaking

Arrest made in Johnia Berry case.

In other news, blogs scooped the local paper. Les, by the way, has been covering the case for a while and help set up a johniaberry.org.

    What was the motive? Did he know her?

  2. Blounttruth Says:

    The KPD stated yesterday at this time it looks as if a robbery gone wrong. Later in the day I thought I heard someone on the radio state that the accused knew her roommate, but Im not 100% sure that is what was said as I was in the other room. I did also hear that this individual confessed. Does anyone know if he confessed before being arrested, or did he confess once they had him?

  3. Les Jones Says:

    According to this News-Sentinel article, “[Sheriff] Jones said there was no indication that Olson knew either Berry or Aymami.”

  4. #9 Says:

    For a brief moment somewhere in the news yesterday it was reported Olson and Johnia worked together at Peninsula Clinic in Blount County. Then poof, the report went away? Part of the problem was reported to be a lack of cooperation from the Clinic about information about Olson. I think it is a drug and alcohol treatment facility. I won’t swear but I thought I heard it on television.

    What was that about? Les, any ideas?

    […] at his blog. Now, more than two years later, and almost 3 years after Ms. Berry’s death, Les scooped the local paper by announcing an arrest of a suspect. Share and Enjoy: These icons link to social bookmarking […]

    I’m glad Les and others stuck with the story. Double glad the goblin was caught.

  7. Les Jones Says:

    9, the News-Sentinel had a fast-breaking article yesterday that had a couple of paragraphs on the arrest, then spend half a dozen paragraphs discussing the last major lead, which was the Peninsula story. (It seemed like they were sort of cleaning out their Johnia Berry file since they didn’t have much information yet on the arrest.) It was this story that I linked yesterday, but it’s been extensively revised now.

    If you read it fast I can see how it would seem like Olson was tied to Peninsula, but it never said that.

  8. #9 Says:

    Les, then it is correct that Olson never knew Johnia before the break in?

  9. Les Jones Says:

    There’s no evidence he did. From today’s News-Sentinel: “[Sheriff] Jones said there was no indication that Olson knew Berry or Aymami, and court records indicate that Berry was killed as Olson was trying to burglarize their apartment.”

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
