Harvey on trial calls confession in deadly case
Dorothy M. Clements testified she escaped after her abductor’s car ran out of gas near the Long Beach Signal Hill line and a shot was fired as she fled. Harvey claimed a companion fired the fatal shot and he denied involvement. He faced 16 counts of assault robbery kidnapping and attempted rape in addition to murder, was found guilty on all but robbery, and given separate prison terms if the death sentence is upheld. A U.S. Supreme Court ruling on capital punishment could affect his sentence. Deputy D A cautioned the actual years depend on the state Adult Authority. A second homicide case reports a 32-year-old Lawndale man shot in his home on Grevillea Avenue with no weapon found or motive identified.

The Supreme Court, in a split decision written by Justice John Paul Stevens, voided a Civil Service Commission rule barring most aliens from federal employment. The ruling allows Congress or the President to set alien eligibility, while preserving individual case review for sensitive positions. The Medicare ruling upheld Congress power to require residency for aliens seeking Medicare benefits. The cases involved five San Francisco Chinese and Cuban refugees in Florida, with broader implications on immigration, employment, and federal benefits.
