Slaying of Wealthy Matron Confessed in Buffalo
Harvey LaMarr, 19, an Indian half breed, confessed to slaying Marion B. Frisbee, a wealthy society matron, claiming the rifle fired during a failed robbery as Frisbee drove from her parents’ home. He said he planned to sell the murder weapon and was arrested at his home. Police doubt the robbery motive given the fur and jewelry on the body. Frisbee, wife of carbonated beverage company executive Willard J. Frisbee, was found in an ice-covered ditch after leaving for her parents’ home social event.
