GUN-GIRL GETS DEATH BLAME
Sailor Innocent Bystander, Coroner Reports. (Continued From Page One)
reconciliation and “later on, Mrs. Milton returned to her home as next door neighbor to Mrs. Stevens. On the surface, at least, all was forgiven by all parties.”
Night of Drinking On the night of the shooting, the corgner recounted a story of heavy
drinking by Mrs. Milton and Mrs. Stevens, climaxed when Mrs. Mil ton took an ice pick and drove it through the screen and the window of Mrs. Stevens’ house as she was passing the front window to go e. “In reprisal, Mrs. Stevens dashed out of her house and threw a beer glass through the living room of the Milton home,” The coroner said Milton took his wife for a walk to “sober her up” and while they were gone the Kovacs brothers reached the Milton home. The Kovacs brothers had come to call on 19-year-old Faith Coombs, who had been regarded in the neighborhood as nursemaid for the three Milton children.
“Protecting Home”
“While this was going on, Mrs. Stevens, who lived next door, left her home with gun in hand and went intp the Milton house to find out what was going on there and who was present, taking it upon herself to act as a protector of her neighbor’s home,” the coroner said. The coroner declared the brothers told Mrs. Stevens they had a date with Miss Coomps. : “Mrs. Stevens, however, was de-
i
termined that these young men leave the premises and their failure to do so resulted in the death of Kovacs, who was fatally wounded by three. bullet wounds inflicted by Mrs, Stevens,” the coroner said: '“If this s#tuation had occurred between people who were normal ine their conduct, the probabilities are very slim that there would have been a shooting. . , . Unfortunately the difficulty between Albert Kovacs and Mrs. Stevens was the result of an altercation between two persons who were: decidedly under the influence of liquor, with other factors of a worse character involved therein.” He said a test of Kovacs’ body showed that he, too, was “definitely
under the influence of liquor.”
‘Husband Paratrooper
Mrs. Stevens’ husband is a major with a paratroop unit in Europe. He is socially prominent here. She cabled him from jail, where she has been held under $50,000 bond on a manslaughter charge, asking him to come to her defense. Her father, J. O, Dumas, a West Texas policeman, arrived yesterday to try to arrange her release on bail. Bolice said they bad previous complaints of her target practice inside her home with a small pistol which Mrs. Stevens said her hus-
band left for her protection when|large Negro delegation headed by
he went overseas. David Goldstein, Mrs. Stevens’ lawyer, was angered by the coroner's report. He said no inference ever is drawn as to the guilt or innocence of a defendant through a coroner's findings. Asked to comment on reports that Mrs. Stevens’ first husband divorced her, charging that she was “unchaste,” Goldstein said client is a fine woman.”
