A suspect held in connection with the murder of two nuns in Jerusalem several months ago has admitted killing them. Police identified the suspect as Alawishes Jiro Roberts, a 29-year-old American Indian. He told the judge in a Jerusalem court Wednesday that his spirit, not his body, committed the crime. The court extended his detention. The two nuns, mother and daughter, were found murdered in the Ein Kerem convent.
