His attorney, Kevin O’Donnell, has said the parolee “feels like a scapegoat” and is “upset” because his picture has been published in newspapers across the country.
Littlejohn was a bouncer at The Falls bar, where manager has told police he ordered him to escort the woman out when she stayed sipping a drink past the 4 a.m. closing time; he recalled hearing the pair arguing before they disappeared through a side door.
Sometime during the next 17 hours, the student at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in Manhattan was raped, strangled and suffocated. Her naked and bound body was found in a remote section of Brooklyn on Feb. 25 with a sock stuffed in her mouth and her head wrapped with packaging tape.
Kelly said the plastic ties were used to bind the 24-year-old’s hands behind her back. He wouldn’t comment on how blood got onto the restraints but said, “It is a very important piece of evidence for us.”
Kelly said witnesses also reported seeing Littlejohn and St. Guillen leaving the bar together and records put his cell phone near where her body was found.
Incidentally, the world is full of scum, and once caught, they should be kept locked up if the resources are not available to keep full and better tabs on them:
Records show Littlejohn’s first brush with the law came at age 17, when he robbed someone with a shotgun. Over the years, he was convicted on drug and gun charges using names like Darryl Banks, John Handsome and Jonathan Blaze — the name of a comic book character.
Littlejohn shouldn’t have been working at the bar St. Guillen visited because the job kept him out past his 9 p.m. parole curfew. Officials say they only knew about a second job he had at a mortgage company.
