SLAYER OF
ARIZONA MAN
GETS DEATH

SANTA ANA, Calif.-A verdict
of first degree murder, containing
no recommendation for leniency
was returned by jury in superior
court here last week against Philip
Goodwin, former priest of the AM
erican Catholic church, for the MUIR
der Of ]. j. Patterson, former Mia
mi, Arizona, man and Los Angeles
bond broker, last spring. Judge E.
J. Marks will pronounce sentence in
the near future.
The jury deliberated AZ minutes.
Only one ballot was taken, it was
said, the remainder of the time be-
ing spent in discussing whether a
recommendation for life impriSon-
ment should be made.
The trial was one of the most
sensational murder trials ever held
in this county. Goodwin was re-
turned here from New York City
several months after the body of
Patterson, charred almost beyond
recognition, was found in Santa
Ana canyon, north of here. At first
the body was believed to be that of
a Long Beach inventor, but later it
was identified by Patterson's broth
er.
Acting on suspicious voiced by
the brokers' relatives, the body was
exhumed and the skull found to be
fractured and abe neck broken.
Witnesses who declared they saw
Patterson in the company of the
priest came forward and. a search
for Goodwin was started.
Several months ago Albert Dewey
Gaines, a Montana cowboy, was ar,
rested near Great Falls, Montana,
and brought here as material wit
ness. Later he confessed, authori-
ties said, that he and Goodwin had
waylaid Patterson and beaten him
to death. Gaines confession was
not introduced in the former
priests trial, but the cowboy was
placed on the stand as state wit
ness and told virtually the same
sorry as related in the confession.
Defense attorneys announced they
would move for new trial next
Tuesday on the ground that new
evidence had been discovered. Fail
ing in this, they stated an appeal
would be taken.
