Tiki Boyd Still On The Loose
By James Wilson
New York Times Reporter

I met with Chloe Barrows on Tuesday. She's still in New York City trying to confirm who might have murdered her mother, Blanche Barrow, back in the summer of 2001. I understand that Lt. Joseph Friday reopened this five year old cold case upon Chloe's request.

There is a distinct possibility that Ms. Barrows has found a link to the possible killer. The police and the FBI are trying tom track down a person in the Federal Witness Protection Program that disappeared right after Chloe arrived in the Big Apple and convinced the police to reopen the case.

The name I have is Tiki Boyd. It seems he was shuffled off into the FBI program right after he testified against that drug dealer, Andre Polario, who was on trial and committed suicide in his jail cell. My research indicates that Tiki Boyd was running a call girl operation in Manhattan and might have had reasons to snuff out Blanche Barrow. Hopefully, this man can be located and questioned regarding the case.

Tiki Boyd Arrested and Charged With Murder
By James Wilson
New York Times Reporter

One day after my second page article appeared in this newspaper, Tiki Boyd was apprehended by Lt. Joseph Friday in Antonio's Italian restaurant in Queens. In his press release, Lt. Friday said that the FBI received a tip on Boyd's location and Lisa Cohen called him immediately since she knew the NYPD were trying to locate Boyd regarding the murder of Blanche Barrows.

I guess we have to thank Blanche's daughter, Chloe, who showed up in New York City a month ago hoping to find out who had really killed her mother. Her relentless efforts are now baring fruit.

Tara Wilson of Crane, Poole & Schmidt said they were pleading not guilty at the arraignment I attended this morning. Judge Helen Gamble held Mr. Boyd over without bail, since the FBI also had charges against Boyd for disappearing from his Federal Witness Protection Program location without first obtaining permission to travel.

NYC District Attorney, Nelle Porter, is handling this case personally and in a short press conference held after the arraignment stated that they feel they have adequate information now to obtain a first degree murder conviction.

I did get a few minutes with Ms. Wilson and she says that although her client did have sex with Blanche Barrows the night of the murder, he claims she was still alive when he left. Does this sound like the same defense that she used to get Victor Watters off a few months ago?
