. Marshall ends prison years as reserve plumber —

“HALIFAX (CP) — After being acquitted Tuesday of a
mirder that sent him to federal prison at-the. -age of 17,

Donald Marshall Jr, is rebuilding his life with the only skill .

he acquired during 11 years behind bars.

. The 29-yeer-old-year Micmac told a news, coinference he -
starts work Monday at the Shubenaeadie Indian reserve,’
about .50 kilometres north of Halifax,.as a. plumber.

_ Marshall learned the trade at the maximum security prison
in Dorchester, N.B.
“It’s the onfy thing I learned in prison,” he said bitterly.
. Marshall, who omes from a rural reserve near Sydney, -
| NS., and has a Grade 5 education, was convicted of killing

” teenager Sandy Seale in Sydney in May, 1971; but always

insisted he was iinocent;

Wrong: It-was the court:
‘pyatern that waa wrong.” : a -

neal Nova’: Scotia Supreme Court. ‘appeale division

beolved Marshall of all blame. in the ‘murder, but sald he

"was largely responsible for his cotivietion because he lied at

his trial.

- “Any iniscartiag of jusilee is more appareat than real,” ;
te Mr. Justice Tan MacKelgan for the appeal court

‘panel.
During the review of the cass, a. ‘witness said Marshall
and Seale were involyed in a robbery attempt » when the

murder took place. The witness sald he saw Roy Ebaary of”
~ Sydney, ‘one of the intended victima, stab Seale. Marshall

“iy attempting to‘defend himself against the charge ‘of

murder, Or. Marshall admittedly committed perjury, for

which he could still be charged,”: the decision ‘said.

: “By lying, he helped scure his own ¢onvition. He misled

his lawyers and presented to the Jary a ‘version of the facts ‘
' that was so far-fetched as to be incapable of belief.” ,
Although he has spent more than one-third of his life in :":
prison, Marshall said he wants to put the experience behind

him. “Tdon't know what I'missed (of life) but what I rhigsed.
I got it all back today.”

-Marehall told reporters he went to & bar to ¢elebraté

when he heard the news from his mther. He said he believes
he deserves some compensation, but has not taken «ction.
