VANCOUVER (CP) — Low coal prices and

Father leaps at killer

VANCOUVER (CP) — The father of a murdered
three-year-old gir! leaped at his daughter's killer Tuesday as
the man stood in the prisoner's box in B.C. Supreme Court.

‘The disturbance briefly halted proceedings in the case,
im which Darren Kelly, 20, of North Vancouver, pleaded
guilty to first-degree murder in the sex-related killing of
Genoa (Genni) May.

Kelly was sentenced to life in prison without parole for
at least 25 years.

As a psychiatrist was testifying to Kelly's mental
fitness, the victim's father, Tom May, jumped from his seat
and leaped over the giass back of the prisoner's box to grab
at Kelly.

Kelly jumped from the box and ran towards sheriff's

from the courtroom.
As May was led away, his mother — the grandmother of
the slain child — yelled: “Please let my son go — he’s not the

one who has hurt anyone.”
COURT RECONVENES
After court reconvened, McEachern told May his
conduct “amounts to a clear contempt of court,” but that
there were extenuating circumstances.
Perhaps provocation is a fair word to use,” the judge
said.

Outside the court, May said he was “sorry I wasn't able
to jump further.

“If I get my hands on him, maybe Ill feel a little bit
better.”

_ Kelly's lawyer; Richard Pevk, told the court his client
had admitted kidnapping, confining, raping and killing the
child.

Asked before sentence was passed whether he had
anything to say, Kelly said: “Sorrow is not forever. Love is.”

‘The girl was abducted Dec. 13 from a motel room in
Sechelt, about 60 kilometres north of Vancouver.

She was sleeping on a couch in the hotel suite while her
parents and 12-year-old brother were sleeping in adjoining
rooms. The kidnapper had apparently entered the room
through a sliding glass door.

The child's body was found the next day on a dirt road
lesding to a park about eight kilometres from the motel.

Kelly, arrested Dee. 20, waived his right to a
preliminary hearing and agreed to go directly to trial.

“T've not only lost my daughter, I've lost my husband,
too,” the little girl's mother said in an interview Tuesday.

“If our daughter wasn't dead, Tom and I would still be
together,” said Linda May.

“It-was hard to help him when you're grieving yourself,
especially when there's someone out there who could do it
better. We were inseparable before Genni was taken. But
after it happened I was too upset to help him. He found
someone else he needed more. He's engaged to her and we're
not even divorced yet.”

Tom and Linda May were high-school sweethearts when
they married at age 17. Their son Steven, 12, is living with
his mother.

Mrs. May, 30, said she was served the divorce papers on
Feb. 17, two months after Genni was killed.

The killer, meanwhile, was remembered by his
neighbors as a creepy character who had been seenslinking
along halls peeping through eye-holes in apartment doors.

Employers said Kelly was unpopular with fellow
weathers snd teadkore receling hint 2s 2 loner and se

He doe peangat wether died sn tiness when Kelly was
seven, and in his teens his mother fought a losing battle with
aleoholism.

“He really hadn't an easy life,” said Phil Wonnacott, a
former schoolmate.

“Darren had a lot of personal problems, especially with
sociat acceptance/” said Dave Crowe, a counsellor at Keith
Lynn Alternative Secondary School in North Vancouver.

“He was-a bit-of « fast talker and he usually used the
wrong methods of trying to get friends. He was a braggart
and it was pretty obvious.”

Teacher Del Horrocks found it easy to believe Kelly
could murder a child.

“Yes, I could see him do that,” Horrocks said. “If there
was a victim he could pick out, that would be it. Darren once
said he was babysitting and he took a kid a dog-food
sandwich because he didn’t like the kid.”

After his mother’s death, Kelly continued to live in a
high-rise apartment with his father, a bus driver.

“I heard tenants say Kelly went around peeping in
people's doors and asking silly stuff.” said Gordon Rosenthal,
a former manager of the building.

“I knew he had a criminal record, but I didn’t think he'd

go this far,” said Roland Judas, manager of a North
Tiasdaver restaurant where Kelly worked.

“When I heard this I was surprised. He was one of those
who came and went. He didn't work here very long.”

Sentenced to nine months for theft in March 1985, Kelly
was released in May and violated his parole in October but
his sentence ran out before he could be caught.

In December he travelled to Sechelt and murdered
Genni May.
