criticized by Charles B. Dulcarl, sr.,

GORDON JENSEN
Continued from Page y

CONTINUED from Page u
by many Negro people as the
Policeman who deliberately beat
David Hartsfield, a Seattle Negro
boy into unconsciousness when he
found the boy in the company of
a white woman in a south end
rooming house, when his plain duty
was to arrest the boy if he thought
he was violating the law. Harts-
field was so badly beaten on the
head and face by Jensen's gun
and blackjack that he never fully
recovered and was reduced almost
to state of imbecility. He died
short time later and was buried
at sea. Jensen was just as surely
the killer of David Hartsfield as
Pat Whalen a few years later was
the killer of Barry Lawson. The
only difference is that Lawson
died Immediately. while Hartsfield
would have been better off had
he died Immediately too.
We predicted at that time that
Jensen was possessor of a killer
instinct that would eventually lead
to his own undoing, and true to
our prediction he later shot to
death his own wife for which he
was convicted and sent to prison.
We are not sorry that Jensen
is being released. 1t is said that
he is practically a physical wreck,
having had two paralytic strokes
while in prison, and Warden Tom
Smith says he never will again
constitute a problem to law-en-
forcement officers. His case should
be a warning to other officers
who delight in beating, manning
and numbering helpless citizens
upon the slightest provocation.

Five convicts in the all-Negro
