In a taped police interrogation, one of the men accused of covering up the killing of attorney Robert Wone said he moved a knife off Wone’s dead body.
“I moved the knife,” Joseph Price told Metropolitan Police Det. Bryan Waid in the interview, shown Thursday in D.C. Superior Court.
“I picked it up despite knowing better,” Price said later in the interview.
Price — who is a lawyer — and his housemates, Dylan Ward and Victor Zaborsky, are charged with conspiracy, tampering with evidence and obstruction of justice in connection with Wone’s Aug. 2, 2006, death in the trio’s Dupont Circle townhouse.
Price also said he moved one of Wone’s arms when he lifted Wone’s shirt. He said he saw a puncture wound.
In separate police interviews shown in court Thursday, Price and Ward insisted that an intruder entered the house and stabbed Wone. All three defendants have stuck to that claim in multiple police interrogations.
