Statement In 'Stupidest Thing' Game Leads To Murder Arrest
JACKSON, Mich. -- A few months ago, a 29-year-old Jackson County man was at a party where people were asked to name the stupidest thing they'd ever done.
Police said Jerry Rose answered, "Shot a guy in the head."
Now, Rose is charged with open murder and armed robbery in the March 22 slaying of 60-year-old Edgar Hawkes.
Police were making little headway in their investigation until police in neighboring Calhoun County questioned Rose's girlfriend about a string of break-ins.
She told them about Rose's alleged confession during the party. They gave the information to Jackson County detectives, who arrested him Wednesday. He's jailed without bond.
