Murder Trial Set for March 19 in Liberty Case
The defendant told the court he lacked funds to hire attorneys Joe Anahuac and C. B. of Liberty. District Attorney Everette Ci Cain and Chambers County Attorney Eugene T. Jensen will represent the state. The man, linked to a 1968 Houston rape conviction and three years in Huntsville prison, claimed employment with a Houston firm when he abducted a 34 year old teacher, Winifred Whitaker, a Clarksdale, Mississippi native with unknown Hougon relatives. His Dec 7 arrest followed a two day search after he killed Whitaker under the Trinity River Bridge and left the body for a Texas City man to find. Trabing reportedly confessed in writing to the murder and to a 1951 rape and robbery in Houston.
