Description

On January 19, 1966 Sergeant Gilbert Derrenberger of the Baltimore City Police Department responded to a call at 710 Druid Hill Avenue. He observed "a couple large spots of blood outside the front door," which was ajar. He saw appellant in the front room. He asked appellant what happened and she replied, "Come on in * * * I got tired of him beating on me, pushing on me." At this point at the trial the issue of voluntariness was explored. The police officer testified that neither he nor anyone in his presence made any promises to her nor used any force or violence on her and that her statements were free and voluntary. On cross examination he said appellant appeared to be intoxicated, her speech was slurred and she smelled "in my estimation of wine." He did not have the opportunity to tell her that anything she said would be used against her because she "blurted out her story." The appellant proffered no testimony on the question of voluntariness and the statement was admitted in evidence. Appellant told the officer she was tired of being beat on and that the deceased had kicked her. She waited until he went upstairs where he laid on the bed and went to sleep. She got a knife from the kitchen, went upstairs and stabbed him but did not know on what part of the body. The autopsy report was admitted in evidence by stipulation. The opinion of the medical examiner was that the deceased died "as a result of a massive hemorrhage following the cutting of a large artery of the left leg as part of a stab wound of that leg." The wound was located on the anterolateral aspect of the left lower leg, at approximately the junction of the superior and middle thirds of that leg and located specifically at a point inferior to the inferior-most portion of the left patella. The alcohol in his blood was .19%. The officer went upstairs and found the deceased across the bed with his feet
