Killer Makes 911 Confession


"GARNER, NC - It was about 10:30 a.m. Thursday when a man called 911 and told a dispatcher that he wanted to confess to a murder.

"When officers arrived at 217 Whithorne Drive - a one-story, wood frame home with a long front porch off Timber Drive - there was no answer when they knocked on the front door. Officers forced their way inside where they found a man and woman, dead.

"Police identified the dead as Daniel Jonathan Powell, 52, and his wife Doreen Kay Powell, 46. A search warrant made public today indicated that a man made a 911 call from Dan Powell's cell phone saying he had just killed two people.

"`It's a homicide investigation, but we are not looking for a suspect right now,` Garner police Sgt. Chris Clayton said Thursday.

"Clayton declined to say whether they found a weapon in the home."
