"Attorney says slain couple donated to suspect" by Associated Press | July 23, 2009

PENSACOLA, Fla. - A slain Florida couple once made a small donation to a martial arts program run by one of the men accused of killing them, a family attorney said yesterday.

One of the suspects in the slaying, Leonard Gonzalez Jr., told investigators he had opened a martial arts studio with financial help from the victims, according to court records released this week. But family attorney Crystal Spencer told reporters yesterday that the aid was just a small donation by Byrd, probably less than $1,000.

That sounds like such a weak motive.


The court records were the first indication that Byrd, 66, and Melanie, 43, had financial ties with any of the suspects. Gonzalez and six other men are charged with murder in the killings. He proclaimed his innocence in court, but other suspects have told investigators he planned the attack.
