HOUSTON, Texas -- In a recorded interview with the lead detective hours after being arrested in June of 2016, Andre Jackson denied killing Josue Flores.
Josue Flores, 11, was stabbed to death more than 20 times on May 17, 2016, on his way home from school.He recounted arresting and charging the wrong man in the days following Josue's murder. He said they used surveillance video and witness statements to corroborate his alibi. The detective spoke about two others they looked at as possible suspects but quickly cleared.
The next day he said they got a call from the owner of a Chevron on North Main St. The owner said the same man in the photos was in his store using the ATM on the morning of the murder. He recalled the distinct green jacket the man was seen wearing. Police were given a copy of his surveillance video and the transaction record from the banking machine.
Other detectives arrested Jackson at the Salvation Army on June 3, 2016 using a pocket warrant, but he was later interviewed by the lead detective on the case.
