An attorney has claimed Daron Wint, the suspect accused of holding hostage and murdering a family in Washington, D.C., is not ‘capable of killing anybody.’
Police in Washington believe Wint, who is charged in the deaths of a wealthy businessman, his wife, son and a housekeeper, may have had help committing the crime.
Lawyer Robin Ficker told ABC News on Saturday ‘I have completed 30,000 cases in the Maryland courts and I’ve met a lot of criminals and of course people who aren’t criminals in my life.
‘I do not believe and his parents, his mother, his brother, his sister, as I don’t believe that he is capable of killing anybody.
‘He’s not the type, he’s not a street thug, he’s a gentle person.
‘I believed that when I represented him 10 years ago and I believe it after talking to him for two hours today.’
Daron Dylon Wint, 34, of Lanham, Maryland, was arraigned May 22 on a first degree murder charge.
He is accused of holding captive construction business owner Savvas Savopoulos and the others until he got $40,000 in cash, then killing them and setting fire to their house in the upscale Woodley Park neighborhood of the capital.
The killings ‘required the presence and assistance of more than one person,’ a Washington D.C. Metropolitan Police detective wrote in an affidavit filed in court on May 22.
Authorities say Wint held hostage Savopoulos, his wife, Amy, 47; son Phillip, 10; and housekeeper Veralicia Figueroa, 57, for at least 18 hours as he waited for the $40,000 to be delivered by an assistant of Savopoulos. The bodies of the four were found on May 14 after firefighters went to put at a fire at the home.
Police identified Wint from DNA found on the crust of a pizza that was delivered to the house late on May 13, the affidavit said.
However, Ficker told ABC News ‘He doesn’t eat pizza. If he was hungry, he wouldn’t order pizza.’
ABC News reported that no contract has been signed by Ficker with Wint’s family.
Ficker told the news outlet, referring to police, ‘They believe, perhaps honestly, that they have the man – but as a result of that they’re not looking elsewhere. They’ve closed their eyes.’
