Burkman Drops Prosecution Ties to Gambling Case
Ex deputy sheriff Richard Burkman now employed by A B Gardner’s detective agency in Pioneer Block has dropped his gambling prosecution against Seattle gamblers. The dispute involved Judge Cann Prosecuting Attorney Fulton and a dispute over warrants and where the complaint originated. Gardner said Burkman sought warrants and paid 106 dollars to retain counsel, while Gardner claimed Burkman acted in his employ and questioned the integrity of the wager. The case surfaced in Cann Court with unclear origin of the complaint and warrants.
