Allyson Scace said Veiovis apartment was “disgusting and creepy.” She said there were blood spatters on the wall.
SPRINGFIELD - Three prosecution witnesses testified Tuesday they saw Adam Lee Hall with guns the night before three men went missing in Berkshire County.
Allyson Scace - another of the ex-girlfriends of Hall testifying for the prosecution in Hall's Berkshire triple murder trial - said the night before the men disappeared, Hall brought three guns to a co-defendant's house in a dog food bag.
Scace, 24, who grew up in Pittsfield but has moved “out of state” said the scene was in the home of Caius Veiovis.
Scace said Veiovis' apartment was “disgusting and creepy.” She said there were blood spatters on the wall.
Judge C. Jeffrey Kinder told jurors to disregard her statement about the blood on the walls, since it has nothing to do with this case.
Hall, 36, of Peru, is facing 20 charges, including multiple counts of murder and kidnapping from three separate incidents from 2009 through 2011.
In August 2011, weeks before he was to testify against Hall, Glasser and his roommate, Edward Frampton, and their friend Robert Chadwell, all of Pittsfield, disappeared.
Their dismembered bodies were found in Becket nearly two weeks later.
This panel of booking photos released Sunday, Sept. 11, 2011, by the Berkshire District Attorney's Office shows David Chalue, left, Adam Hall, center, and Caius Veiovis, right.(AP Photo/Berkshire District Attorney's Office) Hall was a ranking member of the local Hells Angels when prosecutors say he, David Chalue, 46, of North Adams, and Veiovis, 32, of Pittsfield, kidnapped the three victims from Frampton’s Pittsfield home sometime in the early hours of Aug. 28, 2011, and fatally shot them.
Hall is being tried first.
The trials were moved to Hampden Superior Court after defense lawyers said publicity in Berkshire County would make it impossible for a fair trial.
Also present at Veiovis home when Hall had the guns were Chalue, Veiovis and Kayla Sewell, Scace said.
Scace said when she first met with police she didn’t tell them about the guns because she was scared and Hall asked her not to say anything.
Sewell, 24, said he met Hall a month or two before the men disappeared. She met Veiovis through Hall, and “was intrigued with him” and wanted to see him more.
When she and Scace were at Veiovis’ house Aug. 27, 2011, she noticed a lot of weapons in his house, “guns, knives.”
“I was focused on Trash,” she said, referring to Veiovis by his nickname.
Sewell said she went upstairs alone with Veiovis for an hour and when she came down, she saw a gun on the table where Hall and Chalue were sitting.
Steven Hinman, of Lenox, testified to a visit Hall paid to his house Aug. 27, 2011.
He said Hall had a dog food bag holding a Glock semi-automatic high capacity pistol and an M16 type of weapon.
Asked why he didn’t tell police about Hall having the weapons when he first talked to them Hinman said, “You don’t know what can happen to some people.“
Defense lawyer Alan J. Black objected and Kinder told jurors to disregard the statement. Hinman then said he had concerns for his well-being.
Shane Parrott, who manages a liquor store on North Street in Pittsfield, testified a customer came into the store at about 5 a.m. Aug. 28, 2011.
He said after he saw Hall’s picture in a newspaper he realized he was the customer.
Parrott said Hall’s jeans were dirty and damp and his boots were wet. There was dirt, mostly around his midsection.
The man bought three candy bars, and a pack of cigarettes then came back in for cigars, Parrott said.
