Escaped convict admits killing Patrolman Duvall
Bleary eyed James Kendrick, 29, confessed after a 16 hour police grilling to killing California Highway Patrol Officer Richard Duvall. He reenacted the crime for cameras near Victorville and described a linked spree including robberies, car thefts, and a desert disposal of the murder weapon. Kendrick’s escape history and ties to a Lake Tuhoe suspect were noted as detectives linked bullets to evidence. Meanwhile Elvis Presley left Germany for home after a farewell from soldiers and press at the airport.
