DURKIN found
GUILTY, GIVEN
PRISON Term
Verdict Comes After
Six Weeks of Legal
Battle; Takes Sem
tence Calmly

CHICAGO, ILL.,, July lO.-CP)-
Martin j. Durkin, sheik automobile
thief and gunman, is guilty of mur-
dering Edwin C. Shanahan, federal
agent. Thirty five years in prison is
the penalty recommended by the
jury.
The youthful outlaw, who fled to
California and back with one sweet
heart, later 10 return and marry an
other girl, was found t. have shot
the officer while the latter was at
tempting his arrest for automobile
theft.
The state had pleaded for hang
ing verdict, while the defense con-
tended Durkin shot in self defense.
Durkin, who is "a years old, showed
no emotion when the verdict was
read.
The jury had voted him guilty at
2 a. m" after retiring at 1880 o'clock
last night. Then for nearly six
hours the jurors debated his punish
ment: whether gallows or prison
and shortly before s q. m. reached an
agreement.
The verdict ending a six weeks
trial before Superior Judge II. Il.
Miller was read at S:45.
Shanahan was slain on Octiber IL,
1925, in garage.
Durkin's plea was that he had shot
the federal operative because he be-
lieved him a bandit jeopardizing the
$4,000 of admittedly bootleg liquor
profits which the youth carried at
the time.
Durkin expressed a dread Of prison
life. They should have hanged me,
instead" he said.
Motion for a new trial will be
heard July IL, when sentence will be
passed formally.
Mrs. Hattie Durkin, the boys
mother, and his sisters, Lucille, II,
and Ann, IL were stunned by the
verdict and they sobbed on the
benches where they had slept all
night.
The father was not in court.
