Second Trial Under Way for Samuel C Couch in Tennyson Murder
Jurors were being selected in the second trial of Samuel C Couch, Amarillo used car dealer, charged with murder in the Nov 10 1948 shooting of Jesse F Tennyson. Bundrick and other jurors were chosen from a venire of 400 as prosecutors and defense lawyers scrutinize self defense as a possible claim. The prior conviction was reversed on appeal and Couch surrendered the gun after the shooting. Dist Atty Pipkin said Couch may testify in this trial.
