Wo Sentenced 10
Death Penalty
In Murder Trial

For the ftT8t Tune IN more IMAM
40 years q death penalty was
melted out BY Franklin county
courts, when two defendants were
convicted Of first degree murder
Saturday morning.
Aaron johnson and Archie
Brown were convicted and Willie
Smith plead guilty TO the Staying
on Sept. 28 Of Bert Franklin
Williams. Smith gave states evi-
dence and was sentenced to LIE
Imprisonment.
The murdered man was labor
er who had lived in Kennewick
and at one time had been en-
ployed by the Church Grape Juice
company.
After q week long trial the case
was given to the jury at 6 o'clock
Friday night. They returned the
verdict Of guilty and demanded
the death penalty for the two at
1880 Saturday morning. The life
sentence for Smith was manda-
tory.
The murder occurred some time
during the night Of Sept. % at
a point north Of the Naval Air
Station. The body was discov-
cred the following morning and
the Franklin county sheriff's Of
flee was notified. Prosecutor John
Horrigan Immediately visited the
scene Of the crime. A clew dis
covered there ultimately led to
the conviction Of the trio. This
was the evidence Of tire marks
at the edge Of the road where a
car had been turned around. Hor-
rigan called Pasco Police Chief
A. L. McKibben who photo
graphed the tracks.
At later date Archie Brown
was arrested in Pasco on q diff
ferent charge. It was alleged that
he had assaulted q woman the
same day. While in the Jail he
was visited by the other two de-
PENDANTS. While they were in the
Jail McKibben inspected their car
and it was proved that the tires
corresponded to the tracks.
Another interesting piece Of
evidence was brought into the
trial by Prof. ]. II. Mccall, police
science instructor at Warrington
State College, who proved that q
comb found ON the person Of
Smith had belonged to the slain
man. Proof was established from
traces Of hair and fabric from
the clothing Of the victim
Frank Rigas, also Of Kenhewiclk,
had been robbed by the same
men also on the night Of the 18th
at a point near the murder scene.
The defendants were also con-
victed Of the robbery charge.
Prosecution of the case was
handled by Horrigan and James
Leavy, assistant prosecutor. Judge
Timothy Paul Of Walla Walla was
on the bench.
George Beardsley and Floyd
Futter were attorneys for John
son. Brown was represented by
George Freese Of Ritzville and
Jeffry Heiman Of Seattle repre-
scented Smith.
