Officer Says He Paid but Got No Car in Court
Air Force officer J Miller testified in Superior Court Tuesday that he paid 350 dollars to Arthur Warner for a car but received neither the auto nor a refund. Miller, once at Long Beach Air Force Base, is the first witness in the trial of the former New Jersey lawyer, who is charged with six counts of grand theft. He described being promised a car under 400 dollars and receiving various models instead, with Warner claiming the car belonged to a firm or a sailor. The prosecution said the 1952 car actually belonged to Sailor Cecil Faciane of the USS Los Angeles, who had left the vehicle in dead storage with Warner.
