Garner Defense Plans
To Renew Attack on
Confessions Tuesday
Trial of the Garner brothers for
first-degree murder will be resumed
Tuesday, when the defense plans to
offer more evidence intended to
show a District Court jury that
police obtained confessions by force
and that the accused are of unsound
mind.
Thelma Harris, colored, of 28%
Hanover street N.W., who described
herself on the witness stand as the
wife of the defendant George A.
Garner, 25, colored, of the first
block of Hanover street N.W., said
George tried to commit suicide three
times.
Tells of Dog Stabbing.
In November. 1946, she said, “we
had a misunderstanding'' and George
stabbed a dog to which she was
attached. She took it to the Animal
Rescue League, and it recovered.
"I reklly kno.w he's not of sound
| mind,” she declared.
Police had said earlier it W'as
the stabbing of the dog, listed on
George’s police record, which helped
lead officers to the brothers.
The woman said at Police Head
quarters on March 3 she saw the
results of police beatings on George
and his brother Lawrence J. Garner,
23, of the 2100 block of L street N.W.
The brothers are on trial for the
first-degree murder of a taxi driver.

said, she gave George money.
Heard l/Uiucaniuus ivcau,
She testified George was crying
when she saw him at Police Head
quarters, but the prosecutor con
fronted her with testimony she
gave before the Coroner, when she
said George was not crying. She
| conceded she heard confessions of
both defendants read by police but
did not pay attention to them, be
cause she was too upset.
Edward Garner, sr., father of the
defendants, testified that at Police
Headquarters the right side of Law
rence’s face was swollen and bleed
ing and his arms had welts on them
and were swollen and red. The
defense contends police brutality
was used on the defendants, but
police deny this.
Mr. McLaughlin, just before the
close of the Government's case yes
terday afternoon, read confessions
of both defendants to the jury.
