Attorney says phone records show Jewell didn't make call
Atlanta AP report says security guard Richard Jewell could not have made the 911 warning call about the Olympic Park bomb. Official phone records show a 12 58 a.m. call timing, a 1 20 a.m. explosion, and a five minute walk from the bomb site to a pay phone, with attorney Jack Martin arguing the timeline disproves the government theory. Investigators continue to scrutinize Jewell while materials from his Georgia residence and workplace are tested. A 911 delay by the operator delaying the warning is questioned by Councilman Robb Pitts who cites the need for an address to relay the threat.
