Mission BC (CP) – A man who beat a Regina prostitute to death in a case that outraged women’s groups and Saskatchewan’s aboriginal community was granted parole Friday, less than four years after his conviction.
Steven Kummerfield, a former university basketball star, was convicted in January 1997 for the beating death of Pamela Jean George and sentenced to 6½ years in prison.
The three-member National Parole Board panel grilled Kummerfield, 24, about the brutal crime for more than an hour.
Kummerfield described a night of heavy drinking with his friend Alex Ternowetsky in April 1995.
When their friends did not want to go to a bar, the pair decided to pick up a prostitute. The first woman they approached refused to go with two men.
A while later George, a single mother of two who worked occasionally as a prostitute, got into the car with Kummerfield. Unknown to George, Ternowetsky was hiding in the trunk.
They demanded oral sex and then Kummerfield dragged George out of the car and began hitting her.
The case gained national attention after the judge reminded jurors George ‘indeed was a prostitute’.
Kummerfield told the parole panel Friday that George was the first woman he had ever hit.
Ternowetsky beat George as well.
As they drove away, Kummerfield said he saw George walking along the side of the road.
Her body was found April 18, 1995, at the side of a gravel road near the Regina airport.
The following day they heard on the radio that a body had been found.
‘I really didn’t want to believe that that could have been us at all,’ Kummerfield said.
‘I didn’t think what we did that night would have ended somebody’s life.’
George, 28, was beaten so badly her family could not open her casket at the funeral.
The two men were originally charged with first-degree murder but were found guilty of the lesser charge of manslaughter.
During their trial, Justice Ted Malone of Court of Queen’s Bench, reminded jurors to remember George was a prostitute when they considered whether she consented to sex.
Her consent could have been key to the verdict because if jurors had decided she did not consent, they would have had to find Ternowetsky and Kummerfield guilty of first-degree murder.
Lawrence Joseph, vice-chief of the Federation of Saskatchewan Indian Nations, called the verdict a ‘gross miscarriage of justice’. Walnet online article
