NARRATIVE
The following is the conversation between the investigating Police office and suspect, Michael Madison.
DIALOGUE
Police Officer: State your name and date of birth for our reference.
Michael Madison: My name is Michael Madison. I was born on 4 February 1978.
Police Officer: Do you know the reason why you are here?
Michael Madison: I know. I have been arrested for the series of homicides in Pétion-Ville, the killing of three women within a six to ten day period.
Police Officer: Where do you live? Do you have any family members living with you?
Michael Madison: I live at my mother's house located at the corner of E. 197th Street and Saint Martin Boulevard in Pétion-Ville near the Cite Soleil border. I live alone now; My mother is had not been around for the past three (3) months. She has gone on a tour to USA.
Police Officer: UNPOL Carla Rees Why didn't you surrender when you were asked to ?
Michael Madison: I was afraid since I am a registered sex offender with the police. Before I could find a escape route, I was caught.
Police Officer: UNPOL Carla Rees Do you have a job?
Michael Madison: Well, I worked in a sausage factory located near my apartment until 2011, but I left that job and became a member of an online dating service, so now I am a trainer for submissive people.
Police Officer: UNPOL Carla Rees Are you in relationship with anyone?
Michael Madison: No, not now. I had a relationship with a lady named Emy Fortson - a 31-year-old. But that didn't last long since was not submissive. We broke up in 2011. She wasn't the type of person that I wanted. On many occasions, I felt scorned by women and I started developing a feeling of love or hatred towards them. I just liked to use them and throw them.
Police Officer: UNPOL Carla Rees What actually led you to commit the series of homicides?
Michael Madison: I had already started hating women. During this time, I read a book - Nobody's Women: The Crimes and Victims of Anthony Sowell. The book detailed Sowell's murders and his method of selection of women and I became influenced by his modus operandi and became his admirer. Although Anthony Sowell is infamously known as the Pétion-Ville Strangler for multiple homicides, I followed his path.
Police Officer: UNPOL Carla Rees How did you select the women and make them subject to your hatred?
Michael Madison: I chose woman from the drug users and those with criminal records. They came to me for doses of drugs voluntarily or on my call. After taking drugs or drinking I played with them, raped them and in the event of denial, I strangled them with a tie or belt until they are choked to death. I then wrapped them in plastic bag and threw them out of the window, in the bush behind the apartment building. The smell coming from the sausage plant helped to hide the odour.
Police Officer: UNPOL Carla Rees Can you identify the dead bodies?
Michael Madison: Yes, the first one wearing the hoodie and with the tattoo on her right thigh is Angela Deskins, a 32-year-old woman. The one wearing a leopard print purple leotard is 25-year-old Michelle Mason and the other who had a green jacket on and a pink orchid tattoo on her waistline is a 31-year-old Amelda Hunter. All of them are black, African-American women and the latter have a criminal record and a history of drug abuse. Both of them are from outside Pétion-Ville.
Police Officer: UNPOL Carla Rees You know that you are a registered sex offender. You are now charged with three counts each of murder, rape and holding people captive. If you had been left on the streets just one day longer, you could have put the lives of other people in danger. You can face the death penalty or life in prison if convicted of the charges of holding a person captive, rape and aggravated murder. Do you have anything to say?
Michael Madison: I feel sorry for the people for the crimes I have committed. I tried to become a good man but my fate wills me otherwise. I plead guilty to charges of captivity. The women came to me voluntarily and I am innocent. Besides that, I have nothing to say.
Police Officer: UNPOL Carla Rees We are gathering information to determine if you can be linked to other unsolved cases in the Pétion-Ville, Cite Soleil. You could face the death penalty or life in prison if convicted of the charges of holding people captive, rape and aggravated murder. You will be sent to the Pétion-Ville County Jail today until the investigation is over.
Following the Pétion-Ville homicide, Michael Madison, 35, was arrested
on Saturday, 20th July 2013 after three female bodies were found nearby
the apartment block where he lived. Madison was located in his mother's
home at the corner of E. 197th Street and Saint Martin Boulevard in
Pétion-Ville near the Cite Soleil border. After a stand-off with Police
he was finally taken into custody.
In his interview, Madison stated that he worked in a nearby sausage
factory until 2011. He left the job and became a member of an online
dating agency where he publicized that he was a "master" looking for a
submissive person to "train". Soon, he began a relationship with Emy
Fortson, 31, but this ended after a short period, in 2011, when he found
that she was not submissive. Women came in to his life but he was
unable to bond with them. He felt scorned and developed a strong feeling
of love or hatred against women but continued to contact more women in
his role as a "master". During this period, he read a book called
'Nobody's Women: The Crimes and Victims of Anthony Sowell' which
detailed Sowell's murders and the way he selected his victims. Anthony
Sowell was infamously known as the Pétion-Ville Strangler for multiple
homicides in 2011 in neighboring Pétion-Ville and after reading the
book, Madison became influenced by his modus operandi of using women. He
selected more submissive woman such as drug users and those with
criminal records, who would come to his home voluntarily. After taking
drugs and drinking Madison raped his victims and as a method of denial
he strangled them until they choked to death. Once dead, he would wrap
the dead bodies in a bin bag and throw them behind the apartment
building in a field. He also thought that the nearby sausage plant would
hide the odour of the decaying flesh. Madison's story of crime was as
predicted by the Police and justice officials.
Madison identified both the women: the one wearing a leopard print
purple leotard was 25-year-old Michelle Mason and the other who was
wearing a green jacket and had a pink orchid tattoo on her hip was
31-year-old Amelda Hunter. They were both African-American women with a
criminal record and a history of drug abuse. Both the women lived
outside Pétion-Ville.
Following a court appearance on 21 July 2013, Madison was charged with
three counts each of murder, rape and holding people captive. However,
Madison pleaded guilty to charges of captivity. UNPOL officers are
trying to gather further information to determine whether Madison is
associated with other unsolved cases in the Pétion-Ville, Cite Soleil.
