Murder-of-NYPD-Criminologist-Michelle-Lee case adjourns

McGurk: "...I spoke to you freely and then you use truth I tell you against me. That's why people lie... You concentrate on three of four lines of what I said to you, instead of everything I said to you. You read it. You know what's there. You just don't care. You give me that psychobabble and try to be my friend. I didn't tell you everything all at once because I had to build trust with you..."

[Excerpts] ...McGurk said the weekend that Lee was murdered he spent a lot of time with his girlfriend, Catherine Wells, but left her in the city about 8:45 p.m. on Saturday, April 25. McGurk said he got home about 10 p.m., did some homework, watched soccer on ESPN, spoke to his girlfriend twice on the phone and was talking to Lee online. McGurk then left his house at 2 a.m. “I went to Starbucks in Sunnyside. It was closed. I walked to 32nd Street and Queens Boulevard. And back to 58th Street and to Maurice Park and then along the LIE all the way to Juniper Park,” said McGurk, retracing his steps of that Saturday night. He said police officers asked him to leave the park and he got home about 4:45 a.m... When arrested in May, McGurk, frustrated, told Detective Edward Wilkowski and Detective Edwyn Stuart that police had made it “impossible for me to do what I need to do with her family. To pay my respects ... I’ll always be stigmatized as the guilty one.” He said it was his mother who hired a lawyer, not him. “You are Irish, you know, if you have trouble, the family is there for you. I can’t help what my mother does... I can’t process this. I hold it all together. I have been in religion and out of religion. I studied for the priesthood. I have a conscious. If I had something to get out my chest I would... I spoke to you freely and then you use truth I tell you against me. That's why people lie... You concentrate on three of four lines of what I said to you, instead of everything I said to you. You read it. You know what's there. You just don't care. You give me that psychobabble and try to be my friend. I didn't tell you everything all at once because I had to build trust with you.” Police said Lee's nude body was found inside her bedroom on April 27. She had been stabbed in the throat and head, bound with a cell phone charger cord and seared on the chest with a steam iron. McGurk, who is being held without bail, pleaded not guilty and will return to court on July 20. If found guilty he faces life in prison. [Full article here]
