"I love him. I'll stick to him although it seems as though we're both going to die!" Thus ran the statement of 18-year-old Bernice Felton, shown in Duchess County jail here after police had announced that Lester Brockelhurst, 23, with whom she was arrested, had confessed three murders and 10 holdups since they had set out adventuring together from Rockford, Ill., two months ago. The couple was picked up by a state trooper because a license plate was missing from their auto.
