I'm going to kill him. I'm going to kill 'em all," Parker testified.Toler Jr. and Heinze got into a "little tussle" at the factory over Toler Jr.'s car, but Toler Sr. arrived and calmed them down, Parker testified.That happened three to five weeks before the deaths, he said.When defense lawyer Newell Hamilton Jr. asked when he was interviewed by police, he testified he didn't keep up with the dates.Parker repeated he observed the fight between Toler Jr. and Heinze.Hamilton asked Parker if he would be surprised to learned that Heinze's last day of employment was about a year before the deaths."When he told me he was going to kill them, I was working on a tool box for the plant," said Parker, who no longer works there.Heinze also said that victim Chrissy Toler was setting him up with a girl from Alabama and that if the girl didn't have sex with him that he would beat to death Chrissy and the Alabama girl."I told him you can't be doing that," Parker testified.When he told Toler Sr., his reaction was "He's just talking," Parker said.When his wife awoke him Aug. 29 and told him about the deaths, Parker testified "I said Lord have mercy."Parker said his dates may be off, but he did not recant what he had observed.Other witnesses have said Heinze was building houses about the time Parker claimed to have heard Heinze's threats and witnessed the fight.Parker said he and others had been laid off when the slayings occurred.When he heard about it, "I was quick to say he did that ... because he's clever enough to have did that."Hamilton accused Parker of lying."You're coming into this courtroom and making this up," to get your 15 minutes of fame and be on that camera right there, Hamilton said pointing to TV cameras.Parker then said he was a traveling preacher.Judge Stephen Scarlett called a recess for lunch.10:50 a.m.Margaret Orlinski, who lived two doors away from Guy Heinze Jr. and the eight he is accused of slaying, testified she saw someone drive into New Home Mobile Home Park in a blue-gray car then saw a frantic Heinze a short time later on the morning of Aug. 29, 2009.Heinze came running down her driveway yelling, "Help, help, help," she testified on the sixth day of Heinze's death penalty murder trial."Guy was out there screaming, 'My whole family's dead. My whole family's dead,' " she testified.He told her to call police, and she used her cell phone to call 911."He was out in front of my truck dry heaving, trying not to puke," she testified.Heinze was understandably in shock, she said.Orlinski said she had never seen anyone but Russell D. Toler Jr. drive the Mercury Cougar that was parked beside the trailer that Heinze and his father shared with the eight members of Russell D. Toler Sr.'s extended family. Heinze told police he had borrowed the car from Toler Jr., a victim in the slayings."That was his baby," she said of the car.She also said that Buddy, the Toler family's dog, was tied up on the front porch and that "He was a barker."Orlinski testified that to her knowledge Heinze had no cell phone of his own and nor had she seen him with a shotgun that morning.Heinze told police that he had taken a shotgun out of the house before he had Orlinski call 911 and put it in the car. Heinze explained he had paid $25 for the gun but believed it had been stolen.Police have introduced an ATF transaction record showing that the senior Toler had bought the shotgun years before.Examining a picture of Heinze, she said that it appeared to be the way he was dressed that morning, in a striped blue polo shirt and in khaki shorts "other than he was barefoot.""That whole family never had shoes on. I don't understand it," with all the fire ant and other things out there, she testified.Under cross-examination from defense lawyer Newell Hamilton Jr., Orlinski said that she saw Heinze play with Byron Jimerson, who survived being severely beaten."My dog would have barked had he heard Buddy bark. He would have alerted me ... My dog would have gotten riled up," she testified.Buddy didn't bark every time someone came to the house, but he was aggressive toward strangers, she testified.Michael Nixon testified he lived next door to Orlinski and close to the Toler family's mobile home."I heard the dogs going crazy outside, barking," Nixon testified about the morning the deaths were discovered.When he heard voices, he looked out and Russell Toler Jr.'s car, Orlinski and Heinze and then went outside."He said his whole family was dead, they had been beaten to death," Nixon said.Heinze repeated that his family was dead and asked to borrow Nixon's phone to call his brother, Tyler., he testified.Nixon said he called the park manager to let her know what was going on.Nixon testified he saw Heinze go back in the house three times, and "I told him he needed to stay out of there."Buddy was a bull mastiff about a year old and "was fine with me," but couldn't stand the other maintenance man who teased him儲存Of Toler Jr.'s car, Nixon said he had never seen anyone but Toler Jr., his father and sister Chrissy drive the car."That was his treasure," he said of the car.Under cross-examination, Nixon identified a pair of khaki shorts and said they appeared to be the ones he was wearing that morning.Nixon said he heard Heinze yelling from inside the trailer, "Michael's still alive. Call an ambulance."Michael Toler survived until the next day when he died at a Savannah hospital of severe head injuries.He confirmed Orlinski's testimony that the two of them had had beer and tequilla together the night before and that he was intoxicated.Nixon said the only time he had seen Heinze drive the Mercury Cougar before, Toler Jr. was in the car.Once the Tolers' mobile home was moved about a year later, Nixon testified, he tore down the concrete steps and found a framing hammer."It mainly looked like dirt on it to me," he testified of material on it.9:35 a.m.A man who cooked Heinze breakfast said he appeared very nervous in a St. Simons Island restaurant.Jason Ogden said that in the early morning hours of Aug. 29, 2009, he was managing the Huddle House on St. Simons Island. He was doing paperwork in the office when waiter Candy Anderson came into the office and said she was uncomfortable."I came out front and started cooking,'' he said.He said Guy Heinze Jr., who he knew, was there with someone who could have been his brother along with some other customers."He paced back and forth. He sat still about two minutes and then walked outside the restaurant,'' Ogden said.He seemed very tense and he and the male he was with got their food to go.Checking a register receipt record, it appeared Heinze was there was at at 7:08 a.m., Ogden testified."A Philly cheese omelet and a order of hash browns all the way,'' he testified examining the bill."They could have been there 15 minutes, tops, just long enough to cook the food,'' Ogden said.They left in a gold Dodge Charger and Heinze was in no shape to drive "as nervous and tense as he was," Ogden testified.Heinze exhibited the symptoms of being "on some kind of speed,'' which Ogden had seen in family members, Ogden testified during cross-examination."Cold sweat, nervous, walking back and forth ... that's what I've been seeing all my life,'' Ogden said. "That's why my waitress came and got me. He made her nervous."He saw Heinze walk across a parking lot to a Friendly Express store and come back but didn't know if he came back inside the Huddle House, Ogden testified.Just over an hour after Heinze left the restaurant, Heinze told a 911 operator he had come home to find his whole family "beat to death.''8:55 a.m.BRUNSWICK -- Glynn County Deputy Sheriff Rocky Mortoriet testified Monday in Guy Heinze Jr.'s death penalty murder case that he heard a juror violating the judge's instructions to not discuss the case until deliberations begin.Judge Stephen Scarlett heard evidence, held a sidebar confernce with prosecution and defense attorneys and then called the jury in to resume the trial without issue issuing any ruling.Mortoriet, who has been acting as a bailiff protecting the jurors from outside influence, getting them lunch and taking them to their hotel rooms, said it began Wednesday when he took the juror to the gym."He said there is no way I can convict this gentleman," that there is no evidence against him, Mortoriet testified.The juror said that before the trial, he had called a homicide detective in California and asked how he would rate the trail, Mortoriet told Judge Stephen Scarlett.Under questioning from District Attorney Jackie Johnson, the deputy said the the juror said the detective rates interviews with suspects from one to 10.Then he takes an average of his rating, the deputy said the juror said.Sunday when Scarlett allowed the jurors to meet with close family members, he heard the juror talking with his wife about what he had heard in the courtroom."I explained to them there would be absolutely zero conversation about the trial," he said.Five minutes later he was again talking about the trial, Mottoriet testified.Mortoriet said he got closer to them and, "I heard him say, 'and the roaches were so bad.' "There has been testimony in the case that some of the eight people beaten to death in a mobile home, for which Heinze is charged with malice murder, had cockroach bites on their bodies.Another bailiff, who Mortoriet referred to as Deputy Justice, said she had heard the juror, idenfied only as No. 152, tell his wife that Heinze had consumed a lot of cocaine.Deputy Justice caught his eye and shook her head to indicate it was not allowed.The deputy said he and Justice have cautioned him to not discuss the case."Three times counting yesterday when I told him absolutely no conversation," the deputy said.Other jurors have complained they believe he's trying to discuss the case with other jurors, but he conceals his conversations by shielding the side of his face with his notepad.When the jury was seated at 8:50 a.m., Scarlett again cautioned them "that it would be improper to discuss this case.""If any of you hear another juror discussing this case or commenting on this case, you are to immediately report it to a bailiff," Scarlett said.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Florida Times-Union (Jacksonville, Fla.)
