Dallas Negro Confesses Killing Policeman and Woman
In Dallas, a 25-year-old Black burglar named Bennet calmly dictated confessions to police admitting the early Thursday murder of Patrolman Sam G. Sanford and the November 20 killing of Mrs. H. K. Buchanan. He also claimed shootings of George A. Coffer and A. Harris and robberies, later leading detectives to recovered rings from Mrs. Chambless. Bennet, who had been released from prison a year earlier, described his night prowls and the pistol disposal in a North Dallas vacant jet. He also noted he was an AFS worker by day, burglar by night, and had previously served a five-year burglary sentence.
