For a few rocks, one of the other Blacks agreed to help incinerate the body.
One of the Blacks dashed her brains out with a boulder, then offered the detained suspect a few crack-rocks if he helped to burn the body.

The man police say helped burn the body of a woman on Suffolk Street after previously doing crack cocaine with her and her alleged killer was arraigned at UMass Memorial Hospital Friday and held without bail.

“It appears … there had been a number of people doing cocaine for a period of time,” said Attorney Debra DeWitt who was representing Dominic Jackson, 34, of 10 King St. who has been hospitalized since Wednesday night with chest pains.

Jackson told police that he had been smoking crack cocaine with a white female and two black males for an extended period of time on Tuesday into Wednesday when one of the men struck the woman in the head with a rock, said Assistant District Attorney Kassia Smith at the arraignment. Jackson’s attorney Debra DeWitt said that her client has a drug habit and did not contest the recorded statement that he gave to police.

Jackson was reportedly offered drugs in exchange for helping to dispose of the woman’s body. He told police that he left and returned with gasoline to burn the body, according to court records.

The body of that woman was found behind 60 Suffolk Street on Wednesday morning and was pronounced dead by Worcester EMS, said Smith. The woman has not been identified, but is believed to have been in her 20’s, according to police records.

The alleged murderer, who Jackson said he met that day, was described as a tall, well over six-feet, black man in his 40s.

Jackson has been charged with accessory to murder after the fact and possession of a class B substance.

He was held without bail pending a dangerousness hearing on Dec. 12.
