On Monday, January 14, 2002, the Yoknapatawpha County Sheriff's Department conducted a canvass of the area of Oxford Centre, looking for potential witnesses to the murder of Andrea Stover. The interviews summarized are some of the most typical or relevant to the investigation and are representative of all interviews conducted.

  • Joseph Brady, cook with Centre Club, Building 3, 2nd and 3rd floors:
    Mr. Brady stated that he arrived at work around 7:30 a.m. on January 14, 2002. He entered the restaurant through the delivery door and began doing prep work for a large catering job. He did not notice anything unusual.
  • Kristen Davidson, sales associate with Luxurious Living, Building 3, 1st floor:
    Ms. Davidson stated that she arrived for work at approximately 8:00 a.m. on January 14, 2002. She said that she entered through the back of the store, through the loading dock and did not notice anything unusual. She stated that, although the store does not open until 9:00 a.m., that she came in early to finish up some cleaning. Ms. Davidson said that she was in the back of the store for most of the morning and was not aware of anything until she heard the police sirens around 8:30 a.m.
  • Rob Holbrooke, attorney with Smithfield and Jacobson, Building 2, 2nd floor:
    Mr. Holbrooke stated that he has an office overlooking the area where the body was found. He stated that he was at work on the Sunday of the murder but he did not notice anything unusual. He stated that he finished typing some briefs and left work about midnight.
  • Donnie Lee, graphic designer with Blaze Art and Media, Building 2, 2nd floor:
    Mr. Lee stated that he did actually see the victim's body the morning it was discovered. He stated that he was on an important call with a client around 8:10 a.m. when he looked out the window and saw someone lying on the ground in the atrium. At first alarmed, he then thought the body was a joke. He claimed that he knew from co-worker Gretchen Doyle that many artists and actors around town considered Oxford Centre a prime location for performance art and other activities. Mr. Lee stated that he thought it was a stunt, "like something off that show, Jackass." However, as his phone call went on, he became more and more unsure that it was a prank. Before he could act on his concerns, one of his co-workers, Rita Ashbury discovered the body and alerted the police.
  • Shawna Musgrove, sales associate with Luxurious Living, Building 3, 1st floor:
    Mrs. Musgrove said that she was running late for work on January 14, 2002. She arrived at Luxurious Living a little after 9:00 a.m. and had difficulty getting into the store due to the police presence. She was told what had happened but had no details to offer of her own.
